Why 14 year old still urinate in bed?
Patient: I have a 14 year old girl who still wets the bed ,I have taken her to the doctors and she has had ultrasounds ,xrays and there is nothing wrong all tests came back normal ,She has juvenile arthritis has had it since the age of one I was wondering if there was any advice on what to do about this situation,I know it sounds bad but is she doing it on purpose because she was at aunties house and admitted to laying there and peeing because she was to lazy to get up exact words that were said Please help all other doctors say she will grow out of it but when ? Doctor: Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic. I have few questions for you -1. Has your daughter stopped bed wetting at certain age and again started having it2. If so at what age she stopped and when did it startIf he had never stopped bed wetting form birth...you can try some behavioural changes which I can elaborate after proper history and interaction with you , but the effect will not be immediate, but it will be permanent. If its a recurrence after attaining night time control, I suggest you see your paediatrician to rule out pathological causes like urinary infections or Voiding dysfunction.Hope my answer was helpful for you.  I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer.
