Patient's question:
The child usually wets the bed twice at night, occasionally (only on rainy days) three times. The urine is clear and long, but the child sleeps very soundly and won't wake up on their own to urinate unless called. Relatively speaking, bowel movements are a bit dry, but not too dry. During naps, the child often wets the bed. Is there any home remedy for this?Doctor's answer:
For children, do not use shortcuts as a substitute. There are no scientific shortcuts. If bedwetting is caused by insufficient secretion of antidiuretic hormone at night, vasopressin medication can be used under the guidance of a doctor. If the bladder function is not ideal, the child can be encouraged to drink a lot of water to increase bladder capacity and be trained to urinate appropriately. Control can also train the child to urinate intermittently to experience the contraction of the bladder sphincter. In daily life, personal hygiene for the child should be strengthened, and local cleanliness should be paid attention to. Underwear should be changed daily, and wet ones should be replaced promptly. I believe that some parents think that if the child wears wet pants, the child will feel sad and will change the next time.
