How should enuresis in children be treated?

Patient's question:

My child is already five years old this year. I have been teaching him to go to the bathroom to urinate, but he still wets the bed when he takes a nap in the afternoon. So, I would like to ask the doctor how to treat pediatric enuresis? Is this problem serious?

Doctor's answer:

Bedwetting is a very common physiological phenomenon in children and there is no need to worry too much about it. Parents should actively encourage their children at this time and avoid excessive scolding, as it may have a negative impact on their psychology. It is important to strictly control the amount of water children drink at night and not to consume too much water. At the same time, it is necessary to encourage children to urinate before going to bed. In daily life, it is important to enhance the warmth of children's abdomen and soles of their feet and avoid letting them get cold.
