Question
Why is my 8-year-old still wetting the bed?
Answer
The situation you described may be due to a calcium deficiency. There are two ways to supplement calcium: through calcium supplements and dietary calcium. The most common and traditional sources of dietary calcium are dairy products, which not only contain abundant calcium but are also easy to absorb. These include clams, seaweed, cabbage, broccoli, kohlrabi, carrots, kale, and bok choy. There are many triggers for pediatric endocrine disorders. If a child is diagnosed with a pediatric endocrine disorder, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for immediate treatment, including gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should also be mindful not to allow their children to develop picky eating habits and should maintain a balanced diet.
