General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It is unlikely related to brain related issues. It is common among children and in most cases it will settle once the child grows old. Alarm devices and behavioural therapy will be effective.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
