Question

How should parents treat bedwetting in children over the age of 3?

Answer

If a child continues to wet the bed frequently after the age of 3, in addition to correcting daily habits, parents can, under the guidance of a doctor, adopt treatments such as traditional Chinese medicine, Western medicine, or acupuncture. If the bedwetting is caused by specific diseases, resolving these underlying conditions is the best way to cure the bedwetting problem. For children diagnosed with pediatric kidney disease, parents should immediately cooperate with the doctor for treatment, including gastrointestinal decompression measures, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should also pay attention to their child’s dietary balance and avoid picky eating.
