Question
What kinds of diseases can be treated in pediatric surgery? What symptoms are considered internal medicine? Please explain why babies urinate so much?
Answer
Occasional bedwetting after the age of three is also normal, known medically as physiological enuresis. Most children no longer wet the bed at night after the age of five. If a child continues to wet the bed at night after the age of five, and the frequency is more than once a month, it is medically referred to as “nocturnal enuresis.” It is advisable to first check for the possibility of an occult spinal fracture. Also, pay attention not to overwork during the day, as deep sleep at night may make it difficult for the child to wake up when there is urine, and of course, it is also important to avoid drinking too much fluids before bedtime to reduce nocturnal urination. Additionally, it is suggested to buy a timer alarm to encourage urination at regular intervals.
