Question
The one-year-old baby has excessive nighttime urination, 5 to 6 times every night, which affects sleep. No examination has been conducted. I want to know if there is a problem with the body.
Answer
It may be due to kidney deficiency or the loss of trace elements and calcium, related to catching a cold, irregular diet and sleep, and blood and Qi depletion. It is recommended to undergo regular blood and urine tests as well as liver and kidney function checks, and receive symptomatic treatment after diagnosis. At present, food supplements and acupuncture can be chosen. The child should pay attention to rest, warmth, drinking plenty of water, a balanced diet, regular routines, relaxation, vitamin and trace element supplementation, avoiding spicy and cold foods, moderate exercise, sunbathing, and focusing on warm porridge and easily digestible foods. Enhance immunity, stay away from adverse environments and stimulants, and maintain a positive attitude.
