For a 7-year-old child experiencing nocturnal enuresis (bedwetting), the first step is to assess whether it may be due to excessive fatigue from daytime play or exposure to cold. We recommend encouraging your child to urinate before going to bed each night, and avoiding excessive fluid intake close to bedtime. In daily life, ensure the child stays warm and avoid exposure to cold. For now, there is no need for immediate medical consultation; instead, observe the situation for about one week. If the condition does not improve, we recommend seeking medical evaluation at a hospital.
