Question

My son is already eight years old, and logically, he should no longer wet the bed. However, he still does occasionally. Even if I make him go to the bathroom before taking his afternoon nap every day, it doesn’t help. Could it be because there is something wrong with his physical growth and development? How should bedwetting in children be treated?

Answer

Bedwetting in children may be related to functional disorders, possibly a result of incomplete growth and development, and could be associated with issues of urinary incontinence. It requires a consultation for further detailed examination to identify the specific cause of the child. Once confirmed, strictly follow medical instructions for medication treatment. In the future, attention should be paid to the rationality of the child’s diet and guide the child to gradually correct this bad habit.
