What is the reason for bedwetting at night?

Patient's question:

A child is 5 years old, but why does he wet the bed at night? I've always thought that this might still be because the child is relatively young, which could lead to bedwetting. However, the child is already 5 years old this year, and despite not lacking in discipline, he still wets the bed.

Doctor's answer:

If a child suffers from enuresis within the age of four, it is a normal phenomenon and should not be treated. However, if the child is over four years old, or if the enuresis is very frequent, it is best to treat the condition. Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that a child's enuresis is primarily caused by kidney deficiency, which can be lost due to phlegm, leading to bedwetting. If treated, the child can take enuresis-reducing pills. Wishing the baby good health.
