Question

How to treat bedwetting in children?

Answer

Bedwetting in children may be due to the underdevelopment of the brain, which results in the lack of established control and expression over urination. It is recommended that parents take their child to the pediatric department of a local hospital for a consultation. They can start by visiting the urology department for checks, including urine routine tests and ultrasound, to understand if there are any inflammatory conditions or bladder capacity issues. If necessary, a urodynamic examination may be required. After excluding pathological issues, parents should encourage their child to drink more water and set reminders for them to use the bathroom regularly, such as setting an alarm every 2 to 3 hours.
