Question
My child is 9 years old and still frequently wets the bed, sometimes even soiling their pants. What should I do about this?
Answer
It’s best to have an orthopedic examination. It could be due to spina bifida or poor neuroadjustment. Urine routine and spinal x-ray checks can be considered. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy could also be an option; a course of treatment lasting three months might lead to spontaneous healing. For your child’s persistent bedwetting issue, we should actively conduct thorough examinations and treatment without hesitation. If the child’s bedwetting does not improve over a long period, it’s important to adjust the treatment plan promptly.
