The umbrella term โWettingโ includes several manifestations and conditions. In general, Enuresis is defined as the involuntary release of urine.
We notice several types of wettings:
๐ฉ Nocturnal Enuresis, Involuntary release of urine while sleeping, above the age of four. Hence, wetting in the afternoon is classified as Nocturnal Wetting even though it occurs during the day.
๐ฉ Daytime Wetting, Involuntary release of urine during the day and the waking hours. Occurs on a less frequent basis than Nocturnal Enuresis. Involves a different restraint mechanism than Nocturnal Enuresis, and the reasons behind the phenomenon are different from the reasons for bedwetting. [Read more: Dribbling during the day]
๐ฉ Primary Nocturnal Enuresis, Occurs when the urination never stopped, or when there was a break in the act of urination for a short period of less than six months.
๐ฉ Secondary Nocturnal Enuresis, Occurs when the urination stopped for a period of six months or more. At the end of the dry period, there was a regression, and the child started wetting again.
๐ฉ Seasonal Wetting, Wetting that occurs mainly during the winter, and temporarily stops in summer.
