Patient's question:
My child is less than six years old this year, but I don't know what the reason is, he always wets the bed. At first, I thought it was because the child was young, but after he grew a bit older, I found that there was no change. I'm afraid he might have some illness, so I want to know how to deal with frequent bedwetting in children?Doctor's answer:
A child who is 6 years old generally does not experience frequent bedwetting. Therefore, it is important to observe the child's growth and development, as well as their intellectual development. A growth and development assessment can be conducted at the pediatric health care department. Additionally, it is important to monitor the development of the urinary system and reproductive tract. For example, a comprehensive ultrasound examination or imaging study of the reproductive system can be performed to check for any hidden spinal cord abnormalities. Furthermore, it is essential to develop good daily habits, such as avoiding excessive fluid intake before bedtime.
