Question
Male, 2.5 years old, has been frequently wetting his pants since last winter. Initially, it was thought to be due to wearing too many clothes and not having enough time to remove his pants, but the situation seems to be getting worse. What could be wrong with the child, and how should he be treated?
Answer
Firstly, it is necessary to rule out the possibility of inflammation. It is recommended that parents take the child to the hospital for a detailed examination. If no abnormalities are found, consider treatment from a traditional Chinese medicine perspective. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that bedwetting may be related to kidney Qi deficiency and weak control of urine excretion by the bladder sphincter. This is the suggestion for the question ‘How should a 2.5-year-old boy who frequently wets his pants be treated?’ I hope this helps, and wish your child good health!
