Question
My child is 6 years old and often can’t hold their urine. They get very urgent when they feel the need to urinate and sometimes wet their pants before they can get to the bathroom. What could be the reasons?
Answer
Neurogenic frequency is common in preschool children, especially among those aged 4 to 6, characterized by an increased number of daily voids with no change in urine volume. It’s also possible that they have a urinary tract infection caused by Escherichia coli, which is one of the common pediatric diseases. Treatment includes the use of amoxicillin or cefalosporin antibiotics. In addition to timely treatment, daily care is also very important for patients with pediatric osteosarcoma, including protecting the affected area and having a reasonable diet, in order to reduce the chance of recurrence.
