Question
The child tends to wet the bed twice at night (only on rainy days) and occasionally three times. The urine is clear and long, but the child sleeps very deeply and will not wake up to urinate on their own, and the stool is relatively dry but not excessively so. They often wet the bed during their nap. Are there any home remedies?
Answer
For children, do not use makeshift measures for convenience. There are no scientific makeshift methods. If bedwetting is caused by insufficient secretion of nocturnal antidiuretic hormone, then pressor drugs can be used under the guidance of a doctor. If the bladder function is not ideal, children can be encouraged to drink plenty of water to increase bladder capacity, and to urinate appropriately to train them. Control components can also train children to intermittent urination to experience the contraction of the bladder sphincter. In daily life, it is important to strengthen the child’s personal hygiene, pay attention to cleaning areas, and change underwear daily; it should be changed immediately after getting wet. Some parents believe that if the child wears wet pants, they will feel sad and may not change them next time.
