What causes ammonia smelling urine in children?
Patient: my grandson wet the bed and at 4:00am woke up screaming and his whole stomach area looked like a very bad sunburn. I have also notices a VERY strong ammonia smell (so strong I had to struggle to breath and leave the room) when washing out is clothe diapers. Is there a condition that we should be worried about and what should we put on the burn like area.
