Question
My son is 4 years old, but recently he has been urinating frequently, and each time he pees very little but very often. What could be the reason?
Answer
Frequent urination in children can be caused by a variety of reasons, including urinary tract infections, phimosis, and psychological stress. Parents should first rule out physiological issues such as urinary tract infections and urological diseases. If physiological problems are ruled out, the child’s frequent urination may be related to psychological factors, such as anxiety, tension, or the influence of the family environment. It is recommended to consult a doctor for a comprehensive evaluation and to adopt appropriate behavioral treatments or psychological interventions.
