Can Traditional Chinese Medicine treat bedwetting?

Bedwetting is clinically known as enuresis, which is considered by Chinese medicine to be mostly caused by congenital endowment insufficiency (poor constitution and functioning of the body at birth) and chronic illnesses and disorders in later life, and is treated by warming and tonifying the lower element and consolidating the bladder as the basic treatment principle. Urinary loss is categorized into four types: deficiency and coldness of the lower element, deficiency of the lungs, spleen and qi, heart and kidney disorders, and damp-heat of the liver meridian (the liver meridian feels damp-heat evil qi). For patients with deficiency and coldness of the lower yuan, warming and tonifying the kidney yang (warming and replenishing the kidney yang qi) and consolidating (consolidating) to stop urine loss can be treated with Cuscuta Radix Cuscutae; for patients with deficiency of the lung and spleen qi, tonifying the lung and strengthening the spleen to consolidate urine can be treated with tonifying the middle Jiao Yi Qi Tang. For patients with heart and kidney disorders, clearing the heart and nourishing the kidney, tranquilizing the spirit and fixing the heart can be treated with Jiaotai Pill; for patients with liver meridian dampness-heat (the liver meridian feels dampness-heat), clearing dampness-heat and diarrhoeing the liver to stop the loss of urine can be treated with Longdian Diarrhoeal Liver Soup. Note that the above drugs are prohibited for those who are allergic to them. The treatment of enuresis should be based on the patient’s specific situation under the guidance of the doctor, do not blindly use their own medicine.
