Question

My son is already three years old, but he often wets the bed after falling asleep at night. We didn’t realize it and didn’t take him to the bathroom in advance. As a result, we always end up with wet bedsheets, and he doesn’t sleep well either, constantly crying. We’re really at our wits’ end. How do you treat bedwetting in children?

Answer

The treatment for bedwetting in children varies from individual to individual, as each child’s situation is unique. After relevant examinations, treatment can be administered under the guidance of a clinical doctor, using appropriate medication. Moreover, it is important to change certain lifestyle habits or provide behavioral guidance to assist the child. For example, it’s advisable to limit fluid intake before bedtime and ensure the child uses the bathroom before going to sleep. Additionally, psychological counseling should be provided to prevent excessive pressure and anxiety for the child.
