Question
How should one treat occasional bedwetting?
Answer
Occasional bedwetting may be caused by a relaxed bladder sphincter, and traditional Chinese medicine categorizes it into several types, including kidney Qi deficiency, spleen and lung Qi deficiency, liver meridian damp-heat, and heart-kidney disharmony. It is recommended to regularly consume foods with kidney-tonifying and urine-reducing effects, such as lamb, dog meat, shrimp, bird meat, turtle meat, field chicken, dog kidney, pig bladder, chicken intestines, pork spine, pond loach fish, and chrysanthemum leaves. At the same time, parents should pay attention to their child’s condition and seek medical treatment in a timely manner to avoid any impact on the child’s growth and development.
