A few days ago, the child suddenly had frequent urination. How should it be treated?

Patient's question:

Around noon on a weekday, when I was in kindergarten and wanted to use the restroom during nap time, the teacher didn't agree. After going back home, I started experiencing frequent urination, going several times an hour.
Previous treatment history and effectiveness: Urinalysis showed no problems, and resting at home for a few days helped a lot. However, after attending kindergarten for two days, it became severe again.
Results of tests and thorough examination:
What kind of assistance is needed: I would like to consult to understand what's going on and how to treat it.

Doctor's answer:

There are many reasons for frequent urination, but urinary tract infections are most common. It is recommended to start with anti-inflammatory treatment and drink more water. Considering the history of preschool experience, if the anti-inflammatory treatment is ineffective, it is not ruled out that the frequent urination may be caused by mental stress, anxiety, or fear, leading to psychoneurogenic urinary frequency. It is necessary to go to the hospital for further detailed examination to identify the cause and implement effective treatment accordingly.
