Question

What should be done if a child always wets the bed?

Answer

The causes of nocturnal enuresis in children are multifaceted, including genetic factors, incomplete development of the nervous system, insufficient secretion of antidiuretic hormone, excessive intake of fluids at night, and mental tension. Treatment should be tailored to the specific cause, involving training the child to respond to bladder fullness, establishing conditioned reflexes, and using medication under physician guidance.
