Question

My daughter is now four years old. Since she was three, she hasn’t wet the bed, but suddenly, she’s been doing it a lot recently, and it’s especially severe, with about three or four times a night. I’m worried about what might be causing this. Can you tell me what the reasons are for bedwetting in a 4-year-old child?

Answer

Frequent bedwetting in a 4-year-old child can be due to an incomplete development of the nervous system. This is a normal process and can be managed with a high-protein diet. At the same time, attention should be paid to whether there are any signs of urinary tract infections. Bacterial infections can also easily lead to increased urination.
