According to authoritative medical institutions, many babies are caused by the near-cruel management methods of kindergartens that cause this phenomenon. You can find out from your own baby whether the kindergarten stipulates that they must go to the toilet only when it is time to drink water or go to the toilet without peeing, while at other times they cannot go to the toilet even if they pee their pants, and you can probably determine what is going on with your baby’s frequent urination.
What is the problem with frequent urination in babies?
In medical science, it is believed that babies often urinate more often clinically because they have a high metabolism, drink more water every day, and have a smaller bladder capacity. The main reasons are:
1, urinary tract inflammation: such as frequent urination, urinary urgency, painful urination or with fever, should be considered to have urinary tract infections, such as cystitis, pyelonephritis, etc., urinalysis microscopic detection of pus cells or a large number of white blood cells, in serious cases accompanied by systemic infection poisoning symptoms, requiring antimicrobial therapy.
2, dietary polyuria: If urination is frequent and at the same time the volume of urine is large each time, and there is no other performance, we should first pay attention to whether we drink too much water, especially children who like sugar water occur more often.
3, special diseases: if frequent urination with high urine volume, at the same time, there is thirsty and drink a lot, wasting, should pay attention to check the urine, if the urine contains sugar should be considered diabetes, such as no sugar in the urine and low specific gravity should be thought of urolithiasis.
4, urethral and seasonal factors:If urination is frequent but not much each time, no painful expression when urinating, and no other symptoms, the first thing to consider is local factors, such as inflammation of the urethra, prepuce, or pinworms stimulating the pubic area. In addition, seasonal factors, winter polyuria is normal.
5, neurogenic frequent urination:Young children with poorly developed bladder forcing muscles and incomplete nerves can experience spot polyuria during the day, up to 20~30 times, but normal nighttime urination, with a trend of recurrent episodes and normal urinalysis, this disease is non-inflammatory caused.
The baby should be treated for the cause, if the inflammation is caused, anti-infection is the main reason, due to pinworms to give deworming. The foreskin is too long feasible surgery, simply drink too much water to properly control water intake, etc.
Sudden frequent urination in children may be due to foreskin adhesions
In infancy, the foreskin of male infants sticks to the head of the penis. At about 4 to 5 years of age, part of the inner surface of the foreskin will gradually separate from the head of the penis and form some small sacs. Most children have a narrower foreskin opening, which causes some urine to be stored there. The leaking urine base and the tissue fragments metabolically shed from the inner surface of the foreskin gradually form a foreskin scaling. In a humid environment, the foreskin scale can induce the growth of prepuce bacteria, thus stimulating the inflammation of the inner surface of the foreskin and the head of the penis. When the numerous nerve endings contained on the head of the penis and foreskin are stimulated, it is easy to produce a sense of urination.
If the inflammation of the inner surface of the foreskin and the head of the penis is mild, the child may feel some localized itching of the penis and may pull the head of the penis with his hand. These abnormal behaviors are sometimes not easily detected by parents. Only when the infection is more severe will parents notice the abnormal behavior of their child. When the foreskin is separated, the inner surface of the foreskin and the head of the penis can be seen to have different degrees of adhesions. The separation of the adhesions will cause some pain to the child.
If you find that your child has increased urination, localized itching and pain in the penis, and redness and swelling of the penis head, it is best to see a doctor promptly so that you can get proper treatment.
Frequent urination and frequent urination in children
Frequent urination is a subjective symptom that refers to an increase in the frequency of urination. The bladder wall is made up of the “forceps”, which has two main functions: “urine storage” and “urination”. When the detrusor muscle contracts, it means that urination is taking place. Most of the time, however, the wall of the bladder is in a relaxed state, i.e., storing urine.
The bladder volume of a normal adult is about 400 ml, and usually there is a slight urge to urinate when 200 ml of urine is stored, but people often easily ignore or forget this feeling until the bladder is nearly full, and then the urge to urinate gradually becomes stronger. In other words, the normal adult urine volume should be at least 200 ml each time, and 300 ml of urine solution is considered a very normal situation. If the environment does not allow for toileting, even to 400 ml or more is possible, then it is considered a real “holding urine”. Although children’s bladders are smaller, they are related to age and height, so the same reasoning applies.
With regard to frequent urination in children, mothers and fathers should first consider whether their babies belong to the first two conditions mentioned above, especially if they have central neuropathy such as epilepsy or cerebral palsy. If it is a urinary tract infection, you need to consider the presence of prepuce, circumcision, overreaction of the bladder, urinary reflux, stones, etc.
Causes of frequent urination in children
1, there are bad habits:Some parents often urinate when their children are a few months old, causing the bladder to urinate without filling full, which over time causes the capacity of the bladder to become smaller, and later even if there is only a small amount of urine, there will be a desire to urinate.
2, there may be a long foreskin, prepuce: for boys, it may cause frequent urination due to urine remaining in the foreskin sac to stimulate the urethra.
3, there may be urinary tract infection:In addition to frequent urination, there is pain when urinating, and sometimes there may be fever.
4.Spiritual factors:Some children may wet the bed once in a while, be blamed, worry about wetting the bed again in the future, and then appear to urinate frequently.
5, there may be pinworms:Frequent urination is caused by pinworms crawling to the urethra, and is more common in girls.
