Hi,

1. Has your son stopped bed wetting at a certain age and again started having it
2. If so at what age he stopped and when did it start
If he had never stopped bed wetting form birth...you can try some behavioural changes which I can elaborate after proper history and interaction with you, but the effect will not be immediate, but it will be permanent. If its a recurrence after attaining night time control, I suggest you see your pediatrician to rule out pathological causes like urinary infections or Voiding dysfunction.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sumanth Amperayani, Pediatrician, Pulmonology
