A member asked:

My 4 year old daughter says it sore when she pees. how can i help she at times does not want to pee because she fear the pain?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tub time: If you set her in a warm tub of water & tell her it is okay to pee, the warmth will relax her muscles & it won't hurt as much. This often comes from not rinsing her bottom well after a bath, soap coats the pee hole & irritates. Bubble bath does the same. A good rinse with a hand held shower nozzle/plain water can help. If it persists, she needs to be checked for a UTI.
