How to deal with frequent nighttime urination in a one-year-old baby?

Patient's question:

Symptom Description: Before the age of one, there was no issue with using diapers every night, but now he needs to urinate 5 to 6 times every night, and his sleep is not very good. Medical History and Treatment Effects: Has not gone for a check-up. Desired Help: Wants to know if there is any problem with his body.

Doctor's answer:

Hello: There may be potential kidney deficiency or loss of trace elements and calcium. This condition is related to factors such as catching a cold, irregular diet and sleep patterns, and blood and qi deficiency. It is recommended that you have your child undergo regular blood and urine tests, as well as liver and kidney function tests, to identify the underlying cause and receive targeted treatment. Currently, dietary supplements and acupuncture can be considered.
The child should focus on rest, stay warm, drink plenty of hot water, maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular sleep schedule, manage emotions to relax, and supplement with vitamins, trace elements, and calcium. Avoid spicy and cold foods, engage in appropriate and moderate exercise, get plenty of sunlight, and prioritize warm porridge and soft, easily digestible foods to boost immunity. Stay away from noisy environments and the stimulations of alcohol and smoking while maintaining a positive mindset.
