Patient's question:
This morning, as soon as I entered my daughter's room, I smelled a strong odor of urine. I knew she had wet the bed again. This is the third time this month, and I'm very worried. I'd like to consult a doctor: what is bedwetting, and how is it treated?Doctor's answer:
This frequent bedwetting situation is highly likely to be caused by a urinary tract disease. It is best to go to a major hospital's urology department in your area for a detailed examination and diagnosis. It could also be urethritis, urinary tract infection, or a relaxed urethral opening, all of which can lead to this condition. Generally, if the urethral opening is relaxed, surgery is required. Urethritis and urinary tract infection can be treated conservatively with medication.
