Patient's question:

Our child is already six years old, but he still wets the bed. Isn't that something only children do? Moreover, this isn't an occasional occurrence—it happens frequently. This makes me worry if something isn't developing properly. Is bedwetting a disease in children?

Doctor's answer:

If the child has regular bedwetting, it is believed to be caused by urinary system disorders and is closely related to the child's bladder muscles. It is recommended that you take your child to the hospital for a urinary system examination and pay more attention to it in daily life. Do not give the child too much warm water, especially before going to bed at night. You can regularly call the child to use the toilet to see if there are any measures to alleviate the situation. Wishing your baby good health.
