  • Abstract:
  • Nocturnal enuresis is a common paediatric disorder affecting emotional and social well-being. Secondary nocturnal enuresis refers to recurrence of bedwetting after at least six months of dryness. This case report presents a 12-year-old male child suffering from involuntary urination during sleep 2–3 times per week for four years. The condition was associated with marked mental symptoms including fear of darkness, fear of ghosts, frightful dreams, startling from sleep, and stammering speech. Individualized homoeopathic treatment was prescribed based on totality of symptoms. Stramonium 1M was administered. The pre-treatment Nocturnal Enuresis Scoring Scale (NESS) score was 8, which reduced to 3 after six months of treatment, indicating significant clinical improvement. This case demonstrates the effectiveness of individualized homoeopathic management in secondary nocturnal enuresis.
