Question

What should be done about a 6-year-old’s bedwetting and calcium deficiency? Can bedwetting be caused by calcium deficiency? What methods can help the child supplement calcium? Are there any good dietary methods? What are the potential negative side effects of taking calcium pills every day?

Answer

The causes of bedwetting are multifaceted and not necessarily solely due to calcium deficiency. It is advisable to take the child to the hospital for relevant examinations and receive targeted treatment based on the results. Children should start regular calcium supplementation after one month, maintain a balanced and diverse diet, avoid picky eating, increase the intake of high-quality protein foods, engage in moderate exercise, and ensure adequate sleep.
