Question
My son is nine years old, but he has been wetting the bed recently. I asked him why he didn’t get up to urinate, and he told me that he had woken up but didn’t want to get up to urinate. We have told him many times, but he still wets the bed every night. What should we do? I am looking for any good methods for dealing with bedwetting.
Answer
I’m glad to help clarify your concerns. I suggest consulting a hospital for further examination. If the bedwetting is caused by a medical condition, treat the illness first. If there are no medical factors involved, and it is due to poor living habits leading to enuresis, it can be corrected through patient teaching, responses, and encouragement. First, help the child understand that enuresis is a temporary dysfunction and eliminate the psychological burden. With mutual cooperation in treatment, it can be cured naturally. Wishing him good health.
