What should I be aware of when I have excessive nocturia in the elderly?

Elderly people with nocturnal polyuria should pay attention to prompt treatment, personal hygiene, and psychological intervention.
Firstly, excessive nocturia in the elderly can be caused by disease factors, and even the risk of major diseases cannot be ruled out. Patients are advised to seek medical examination accompanied by their family members and be treated promptly and symptomatically.
Secondly, as the elderly are less fit, their skin is less able to defend itself and repair itself, bedwetting due to excessive nocturia is a common occurrence. Families should take good care of the elderly, remove dirt and change bed linen in time to avoid skin diseases.
Finally, frequent night waking can affect the sleep of the elderly and their mental state, while the occurrence of bedwetting can make the elderly ashamed and self-critical. Therefore, family members should do a good job of psychological intervention for the elderly to resolve their bad moods and avoid psychological disorders so that they can live a positive and optimistic life.
