My daughter has not been urinating during the day and often at night for 6 months. Previously, this problem was not there. The doctor found that the urine was bad and recommended a large dose of vitamin A for 2 weeks. C. However, the problem has recurred and the baby complains of a burning sensation and is unable to wash properly. After the last tonsillectomy in December, she underwent extensive antibiotic therapy. From today also takes an antibiotic. The doctor said it could be emotional. What to do?

Problems with incontinence during the day that appear suddenly after a period of proper control of urinary incontinence are most likely associated with incorrect fluid intake and with incorrect posture when urinating. If the child does not lower the pants and underwear down to the ankles and sits down with the thighs pressed together, this causes some kind of bladder obstruction and a leak of urine into the vagina. As a result, the child complains of pinching when urinating and the vulva is red. To eliminate ailments, the child should learn the correct position - underwear lowered to the ankles, thighs wide open, legs resting on the step, and a suitable overlay on the toilet.
