General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi I am Dr Usman. I can understand your concern. Wetting is a problem specially when the child has passed his toddler stage. There can be psychological as well medical issues. Certain drugs are available to control nocturnal that is night time bed soiling like trptanol but you need to see a doctor for correct prescription as well to rule out any other physical problem. Thanks
