What complications can occur due to bedwetting?
Although frustrating, bedwetting has no real consequences, unless there is a structural or medical cause. However, there are issues that you need to watch for:
- Guilt and embarrassment can lead to low-self-esteem.
- Fear of bedwetting may cause the child to avoid sleeping over at a friend's house, going to camp and other activities.
- Rashes on child's bottom and genital area, especially if the child sleeps in wet clothes.
