Question
Now my child is in second grade. But last night, he showed signs of bedwetting. Usually, he always goes to drink plain water before going to bed. Moreover, he doesn’t like to exercise. I am very worried. I would like to consult an expert. What are the reasons for my son’s bedwetting?
Answer
Sometimes bedwetting can occur if he’s been playing too hard during the day and is overly sleepy, so he doesn’t feel the need to urinate. Of course, drinking more water before bedtime might also be a factor. If this situation occurs, it’s advisable to check for routine urine tests; if urinary tract infections are present, and if this condition happens frequently, it’s necessary to go to the hospital for a check-up. Sometimes, the problem cannot be explained. It’s important to reduce the amount of water he drinks before going to sleep at night.
