Daytime Urinary Incontinence
While wetting the bed at nighttime can happen in younger children, daytime urinary incontinence may be a symptom of cystitis in older children and adults. This may be a result of the urgency and increased frequency of urination caused by cystitis.
Cystitis in babies and children may be an indication of vesicoureteral reflux, which causes urine to flow backward in the wrong direction after entering the bladder. Research suggests that around 1 to 3 percent of children have this condition.7‘Vesicoureteral Reflux (VUR) in Infants & Young Children.’ HealthyChildren.org, www.healthychildren.org/English/health-issues/conditions/genitourinary-tract/Pages/Vesicoureteral-Reflux-in-Infants-Young-Children.aspx
