What Does Pediatric Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy Do for Your Kid?

This post may contain affiliate links. Read full disclosure.

by RAKI WRIGHT

It’s normal for kids to have bathroom accidents and make a mess at home. But if you have to deal with this multiple times every day or you find yourself constantly running late because of these issues, it might be time to start looking for some solutions.

If you are not aware, every one in six kids below age 17 faces the issue of incontinence. Although it is a common problem, you cannot take it lightly. If someone you love has been experiencing these issues, you must reach out and put a stop to this pain once and for all by learning about the holistic approach offered by pediatric pelvic physiotherapists.

Urinary incontinence indicates a lack of control over the bladder in kids over four years old. If it is a recurring problem, you can refer to it as enuresis, which can be of different types: daytime wetting, nighttime bedwetting, etc. If you want to improve your child’s condition, look for pelvic floor physiotherapy. Do you wonder how to find pelvic floor physio? You can search on Google or speak to your acquaintances for recommendations. Before this, let’s understand why your kid is having bathroom accidents.

Postponed urination

When the bladder is too full after ignoring the call for toilet multiple times, the kid can experience urinary leakage. Depending on the situation and reason for holding in urination, a child may leak urine at home or school. A young boy or girl might experience toilet avoidance due to an existing medical condition or various distractions. For example, something such as an exciting event can prevent them from leaving the site, or they may feel ashamed of something, or they might suffer from a severe fear of public restrooms.

Tight muscles

Voiding dysfunction can occur when the pelvic floor muscles don’t work correctly. It’s a problem that mainly affects children, who may be unable to empty their bladder as a result. It may cause them to have to pee more often than average.

Overactive bladder

Children who are not yet fully toilet trained may find themselves having a sudden and urgent desire to urinate. It happens due to the quick contraction of the bladder muscles. You can also call it a case of an overactive bladder.

Lazy bladder 

Unlike an overactive bladder that contracts too quickly or too often, children suffering from a “lazy bladder” will have difficulty pushing their bladders to empty. They might also take more time (more than twelve hours) to urinate, which can be unhealthy if their bladders don’t empty as they should.

These are some examples of the possible causes of your kid’s bathroom accidents. You and your kid deserve to live a stress-free life no matter what leads to this. But issues like incontinence can prevent you both from having a peaceful lifestyle. If you want to get rid of this, consult a pelvic floor physical therapist, a child’s specialist. They can examine your kid’s condition and recommend the proper procedure for their recovery from this. Don’t hesitate to ask anything that bothers you about your kid’s health when you meet them.
