Doctor's answer:
Generally, frequent urination is believed to be a way to regulate urinary nerve damage, or it could be a psychological effect. There is also the possibility of a urinary tract infection!

After diagnosis, appropriate treatment should be administered. The child has frequent urination and urgency. Considering a urinary tract infection, it is usually caused by bacteria and clothing.
