What to do if children urinate frequently before bedtime

The main manifestation of frequent urination is an increase in the number of urinations per day, but there is no increase in urine volume. The average patient's urination frequency can increase from 6 to 8 times a day to 24 to 37 times. In severe cases, it can even be as severe as more than ten times an hour, but the amount of urine each time is very small, perhaps only a few drops. If a child has symptoms of frequent urination before going to bed, it may be due to neurotic frequent urination caused by some mental elements.

During treatment, first of all, do not pay too much attention or make arbitrary accusations, do not hit or scold the child. Instead, encourage the child to extend the time between urinations as much as possible, and record the longest time between urinations every day. If there is progress, give appropriate rewards.

Secondly, repeatedly tell the child that he is healthy and that the frequent urination symptoms will improve soon, eliminate their negative psychological factors, and encourage them to speak out their troubles.

In addition, play and play games with your children, participate in outdoor activities together, divert their attention, and care about the questions they raise and give serious explanations. Make them have a correct understanding of the issues they are afraid of and worried about, and restore them to their previous relaxed and happy state of mind as soon as possible.

Finally, if the children are in school, they need the cooperation of the teachers so that they can get the teachers' understanding and comfort. As your mind and emotions relax and fear is eliminated, frequent urination will naturally be corrected.

In addition, the child may also have a urinary tract infection, which is caused by Escherichia coli and is one of the common pediatric diseases. Girls are much more likely to get the disease because the urethra of baby girls is short, so it is easy to cause urinary tract infection. Therefore, during treatment, you must drink plenty of water, urinate frequently, and pay attention to the hygiene of the vulva.
