Patient's question:
My son is already four years old. But I don't know what's wrong. He always wets the bed at night. Every night, I worry and remind him to go to the toilet. He always says he doesn't need to. But when he falls asleep, he wets the bed the next morning. What should I do about my child's enuresis and frequent bedwetting?Doctor's answer:
A four-year-old child has the phenomenon of enuresis, which may be due to delayed development of the urinary central nervous system, or it could be caused by malnutrition, lack of vitamins, or deficiency in trace elements. It is important to avoid scolding or punishing the child and instead provide positive and encouraging education. Blood tests should be conducted to check blood routine and trace elements. If any deficiencies are found, they should be supplemented promptly. The child should drink less water before bed, avoid holding urine, and eat fewer snacks.
