Question
How can children’s nocturnal enuresis be treated? I’ve taken some regulating Chinese medicine and undergone physical therapy for brain nerves, but the results have been unsatisfactory.
Answer
Nocturnal enuresis can usually resolve itself, but if a child still wets the bed at the age of twelve, further examination may be needed to rule out pathological causes. If there are no pathological issues, it is advisable to start with improving lifestyle habits, such as adjusting sleep schedules, limiting fluid intake before bedtime, setting regular wake-ups to urinate, and reducing psychological stress. Nocturnal enuresis may have a genetic component, and understanding the family history can help assess the prognosis.
