Question
What types of food should be chosen for dietary management after the treatment of a child’s long-term enuresis?
Answer
In dealing with a child’s enuresis issue, in addition to active treatment, psychological adjustment is equally important to avoid making the child feel pressured. It is recommended to reduce fluid intake before bedtime and to wake the child regularly for urination. As children grow older, their bodily functions gradually improve, and enuresis situations usually improve. In terms of diet, it is advisable to avoid cold foods such as mung beans and crabs, as well as diuretic foods like watermelons, winter melons, corn, Job’s tears, red beans, and carp, to help reduce the occurrence of enuresis.
