Is a 5-year-old baby prone to frequent urination?

Patient's question:

A 5-year-old child has bedwetting and frequent urination. Sometimes they experience difficulty urinating. A single urination produces a small amount of urine. They need to go every 20 minutes. They urinate 6-7 times a day, with 5-6 times at night. Is this normal?

Doctor's answer:

Baby urinates frequently, sometimes with difficulty urinating, and there is a high possibility of a urinary tract infection. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a follow-up examination and have a urinalysis to confirm whether there is a urinary tract infection. If there is an infection, anti-inflammatory medication will be needed for treatment.
For patients with urological conditions, in addition to symptomatic treatment, it is important to pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life. A positive attitude is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease. I hope the above answer can help you. Thank you!
