“Can my daughter get rashes due to bed wetting?”
My daughter sometimes wets the bed while she's sleeping. Will this eventually cause her to have a rash or any infection? We try to clean her mess immediately, and she hasn't had anything so far.

Usually this does not occur. Also, depending on her age, sometimes we help her along with either behavior modification techniques or with medication to help stop the leakage at night. We typically initiate this at around age 8 if the person is still wetting the bed.

Yes, because of the chemical irritation of urine.
It is certainly possible. Bed wetting alarms can sometimes be helpful in this situation.
