(HealthDay News) — There are things parents can do to help prevent urinary tract infections among children.

The National Kidney and Urologic Diseases Information Clearinghouse offers these suggestions:

  • If your child doesn’t urinate frequently, offer more fluids.
  • Make sure your child knows how to properly wipe after using the bathroom.
  • Dress your child in cotton underwear and loosely fitted clothing.
