Is it normal for a 4-year-old child to wet the bed?

Patient's question:

My son is 4 years old this year, but he still has bedwetting behavior. I'm a bit worried. I want to ask if it's normal for a 4-year-old to wet the bed? If it's not normal, what impact does it have on his growth and development? And are there any methods to prevent him from wetting the bed?

Doctor's answer:

Under normal circumstances, a 4-year-old child does not go to bed to sleep. If it is still wetting the bed, consider that there may be a certain relationship between incomplete neurodevelopment. It is recommended to take the child to the hospital for a neurology examination and improve relevant examinations and treatments before taking certain medications targeting symptoms. Usually, you should train your child to urinate regularly. Do not let the child drink too much water before going to sleep. Do not get too excited. After a period of training, it will help improve.
