Urinary incontinence is common in children, though discussions about it can be rare. Incontinence can affect a child’s self-confidence as well as social and emotional well-being.

The Rutgers Health Pediatric Continence Center diagnoses and treats childhood problems that have an association with emptying the bladder. These problems often include:

• Bedwetting
• Day wetting
• Urinary frequency
• Urinary tract infections

The center helps children restore control, comfort, and confidence with treatment from expert physicians and staff. We use life-changing equipment and techniques to correct incontinence, such as:

• Behavior modification
• Biofeedback
• Constipation treatment
• Counseling
• Medication
• Urodynamics
• X-rays

Physicians who serve our center are on the faculty of Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, a part of Rutgers University, one of the top research institutions in America. Our doctors are active in research and teach about all aspects of pediatric continence and urology. Each brings leading-edge knowledge from the classroom to the exam room.

If you are seeking help for your child who is experiencing urinary incontinence, please make an appointment with the Rutgers Health Pediatric Continence Center today.
