Patient's question:
My child is 16 years old this year, almost an adult. Some say he has a problem with his brain, but he is sometimes very smart. However, until now, I still can't understand why he always wets the bed at night. From childhood to now, at 16 years old, what is the reason?Doctor's answer:
Children who have not reached adulthood have not yet fully developed their central nervous system, which can lead to bedwetting. As children grow, their central nervous system gradually matures, and bedwetting may occur, possibly due to urinary system diseases. The most common cause is urinary tract infections. Antibiotics can be used for symptomatic treatment. If the symptoms are severe, uroscopic examination may be performed to identify the cause, and surgical treatment may be necessary if needed.
