Patient's question:
At this age, I don't know why she still wets the bed. I don't think she drank anything at night, but I don't know what's going on. I haven't taken her to the hospital yet because I don't think it's a medical condition.What kind of assistance is needed: How should one treat a child who sometimes wets the bed?
Doctor's answer:
Bedwetting in children refers to the condition where children aged 5 or older are unable to control their urination, often wetting their beds at night, and sometimes wetting their pants during the day. In most cases, the recurrence of bedwetting in children has no relation to illness and is caused by psychological factors or other various factors. After 4 p.m. each day, it is advisable to reduce fluid intake, eat less liquid food for dinner, and avoid fruits like watermelon, oranges, and raw pears, as well as milk, to increase the bladder's storage capacity at night.
