What should I do if I have a strong urge to urinate and wet the bed?

Patient's question:

I am 42 years old. In the past, I couldn't hold my urine—I had to go right away or else I would wet my pants. Whether it was winter or summer, I was afraid of cold and had cold hands and feet. This winter, I have started experiencing severe bedwetting, already happening twice. The last time I wet the bed was not because of cold but because of a stomachache.
Hello, what illness do I have, how should I be treated, and what medications should I take? Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to the situation you described, the inability to hold urine when urinating urgently has gradually worsened, leading to current bedwetting. It is suspected that you may be experiencing frequent urination. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a urine test to check. If there is a urinary tract infection, it can also cause frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete urination. Additionally, you should not wash vegetables or clothes with cold water, and your feet should not be exposed to cold. If the test shows an infection, you can take levofloxacin or gynecological medication for treatment, and apply a hot water bag or cold compress to the lower abdomen.
Furthermore, for patients with urological conditions, their dietary status and care during treatment are also very important. Patients must digest vitamins, prevent diarrhea, and maintain a light diet to avoid unnecessary harm. It is hoped that the above answer can help you. Thank you.
