Excessive Quantity of Urine
In some incoördinations there is abnormal thirst which results in the child drinking more water than is required for the normal bodily processes. The natural channel through which this excessive amount of water is excreted is through the kidneys. This results in the bladder being filled often, which necessitates the frequent passing of urine. The child might be able to control the bladder during waking hours and make his wants known; but in sleep, as the bladder becomes full, Innate would relax the sphincter muscle, which would allow the urine to escape in order to relieve the pressure. To overcome the nocturnal enuresis in a case of this kind, it is necessary to adjust for the cause of the excessive thirst; and when this is corrected, the bed wetting will cease.
