Question

The child has good energy, normal appetite, and good sleep at night, but has been experiencing frequent urination with little urine output recently. What could be the cause?

Answer

From a Western medical perspective, this could be due to a urinary tract infection; from a traditional Chinese medicine perspective, it may be caused by kidney Qi instability and improper bladder contraction. It is recommended to consult a doctor for examination to rule out the possibility of infection and to pay attention to hygiene habits. If confirmed not to be due to infection, one can try traditional Chinese medicine treatment or improve lifestyle habits.
