How to get rid of this habit ?
Rakesh, a handsome boy aged 18 came to consult me with his mother, he was hesitant to narrate his problem so his mom narrated that he has problem of bedwetting. When I encouraged this young chap to speak up, he narrated that he passes urine in sleep at night, this problem got worsened when he joined engineering course and started staying in college hostel. He wept uncontrollably during consultation when he explained how insulted and shameful he feels when his room-mates commented about this.
After a detailed consultation, I prescribed a remedy called SEPIA to Rakesh and also counseled him, after 3-4 months of treatment his bedwetting problem vanished completely and I could see the confidence and joy in his face when he consulted me last time.
Bedwetting which is in medical terms called as Enuresis is a common problem in young children, Rakesh’s case is a rare one as it continued up till 18 yrs of age.
A child is diagnosed be suffering with Enuresis if urinary incontinence continues beyond 4 years for daytime and 6 years for nighttime. Before this specified age if child wets bed, it is normal and it doesn’t need any medical help.
From birth till the age of 6 years is required for the maturation of the nerves and the urinary system to function optimally, to sense the signal of full bladder. Even after 7 years still your child has not developed this and wets bed often then you need to consult a doctor.
Types of Enuresis
If the child has never been dry at night
Primary enuresis
If the child begins bedwetting after a gap of 6 months or more – Secondary enuresis
Bedwetting happens only at night (Nocturnal) while sleeping—Nocturnal enuresis
If involuntary voiding of urine also occurs in day time while awake—Diurnal enuresis
