Children below the age of five or so usually wet the bed because of the size of their bladder. Their bladders are too small to hold the urine for a longer time, like all through the night. It is very fortunate that this condition is outgrown. Sometimes even older children wet the bed, which is an occasional event, but it normally stops by the time they become teenagers. It is important to know that certain conditions like diabetes and urinary tract infection may also lead to bed-wetting.
The medical term used for this condition is enuresis defined as the act of urinating as a habit on the bed and it is an involuntary act. Bed-wetting is seen sometimes in aged people too. A few herbal treatments for treating bed-wetting are discussed below.
