What are the reasons for a four-year-old child to wet the bed?

Patient's question:

My daughter is now four years old. Since she was three, she has not wet the bed, but in the past two days, she has suddenly started wetting the bed, and it's quite severe—about three to four times a night. I'm very worried about what might be causing this. Could you please tell me what might cause bedwetting in a four-year-old?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I'm glad to answer your question: At the age of 4, children may experience bedwetting symptoms, which are generally considered to be related to the underdevelopment of the nervous system. This is a process, and high-protein diets can be used for regulation. At the same time, it is also important to observe whether there is any occurrence of urinary tract infections. If there is bacterial infection, it is generally more likely to cause increased urination.
