Suggest Treatment For Frequent Urination In A Child

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here... I have had my 8 year old s urine tested and it is all clear, but before going to bed he visits the toilet 6 or 7 times. He strains to get a dribble out each time. He does one big wee and then the rest are a struggle. He said it is annoying. Nothing hurts.

Hello, thanks for asking on healthcaremagic. Seems like all is well. Might be that psychologically the child feels that he should not wet the bed at night and pass as much urine before sleeping as possible. It is more in the mind than the body i guess. Try to talk to him, maybe he has some anxiety. On the other hand you can get blood sugar tested, to rule out type 1 diabetes. However it seems all is ok. Hope i answered your query. Thanks.
