(6) Enuresis in children

Enuresis is a condition in which you don't urinate involuntarily while sleeping. Bedwetting is common in children over 3 years of age. Pediatric enuresis is more common in preschool children, but a significant proportion of primary school students are also present. Physical weakness, excessive playfulness during the day, urogenital malformations, urinary tract infections, parasitic diseases, spinal or craniocerebral injuries, developmental and malnutrition, etc., can lead to dysfunction of the cerebral cortex and reflexes of the spinal cord, resulting in enuresis.

The main symptom is urination while asleep, mostly in the middle of the night or early morning, once a few times a few times a night in mild cases, and several times a night in severe cases. Patients with a long course of disease may have paleness, chlorosis, general weakness, cold limbs, mental dementia, mental retardation and other symptoms.

2. Precautions

(1) Before treatment, X-ray can be done to examine the child's lumbosacral region to rule out congenital lumbosacral fissure.

(3) Children with enuresis should not drink more water before going to bed at night, and should drink less soup, juice and other beverages at dinner.
