Question
This morning, as I entered my daughter’s room, I immediately smelled a very strong urine odor. I knew she had wet the bed again; this is the third time this month, and I am particularly worried. I want to consult with a doctor about what this bedwetting condition is and how to treat it?
Answer
This frequent bedwetting situation is likely to be a urinary tract disease. It is best to go to a larger local hospital for a detailed urological examination to confirm the diagnosis. It could also be urethritis or urinary tract infection, or a condition where the urethral opening is loose, all of which can lead to such occurrences. Generally, if the urethral opening is loose, surgery may be required. Urethritis and urinary tract infection can be treated conservatively with medication.
