Doctor: Hi,Welcome to HealthcareMagic.Thank you for your question. Infections in toddler age group is common(3yrs-6yrs). I would suggest you to take him to a paediatrician and get a few investigations done to rule to urinary tract infection. Otherwise proper hygiene, good diet including fruits and vegetables should be enough for him to build immunity.I hope this answers your query. Good luck.With best regards,
