What is pediatric enuresis? What methods are available

Patient's question:

The baby is already in the middle class of kindergarten, but still wets the bed during naps at noon. They are quite mischievous during the day and barely have a moment of rest. At night when it's time for a nap, they dislike kicking off the blanket. Sometimes during naps, they startle easily, as if they've been startled. Normally, they wet the bed about four to five times a month. The doctor said it's called nocturnal enuresis in children. What kind of help is needed: What is nocturnal enuresis in children?

Doctor's answer:

Bedwetting in children may be due to incomplete physical growth and development, weak formation of the urinary reflex arc, leading to involuntary urination during deep sleep. In some cases, it is caused by underdeveloped bladder sphincters. Traditional Chinese Medicine believes it is due to insufficient middle Qi, weak kidney Qi, and poor retention, which usually improves with stable physical health. It is recommended to visit a hospital for a thorough examination to rule out urinary tract inflammation, stones, and other symptoms. Then, traditional Chinese medicine can be used for conditioning, or Buzhong Yiqi pills can be applied to the navel for good results. Raw white ginkgo nuts should be consumed 5-7 pieces daily for 10 days. White ginkgo has mild toxicity and should not be taken for long periods.
