· Primary type is those who were never dry since potty trained. No daytime wetting.
· Secondary type is those who achieved dry days till 6 months but now again started bedwetting. Sometimes it’s related to any underlying disorder or stress.

Diagnosis: Reach to your pediatrician. Give proper history and details of child. Do some tests if required like Urine routine and culture, Renal function test, Thyroid, Bladder scan etc.

Treatment: Reduce amount of liquid intake 1-2 hours before bed. Alarm to urinate. Appreciation on not wetting, no scolding on wetting. Proper toilet training. Oral medicines like Desmopressin, Oxybutynin, Imipramine.
