Brief Summary  

Baul Fil-Firash (Nocturnal Enuresis) Composed of Arabic words- “Al-Baul” and “Al-Firash” Which stand for urine and bed respectively.

Nocturnal Enuresis (Baul Fil-Firash) refers to involuntary voiding in night in children aged 5 years or more without any other urinary tract symptoms. The prevalence of Nocturnal Enuresis is more than 10% among 6 years old and 5% among 10 years old & 0.5-1% among teenagers & young adults. Nocturnal Enuresis has a Negative impact on Child`s health and imposes a long-term burden on families.  It causes negative psychological consequences & behavioural problems.

Although Nocturnal Enuresis has a high rate of spontaneous remission but it affects quality of life and self-confidence of children. Anti-cholinergic drugs and muscle relaxants are used in the management but relapse is noticed in majority of children after discontinuation of drugs.

Despite being a common problem, evidence of safe and effective treatment is not available. Unani physicians are treating this disease successfully from decades so clinical trials on Scientific parameters are required to evaluate efficacy of the Unani compound formulation.

Nocturnal Enuresis refers to the symptoms of intermittent incontinence during sleep at least twice a week in children older than 5 years of age for at least 3 months.

In other words, any type of wetting episodes that occur in discrete amount during sleep is called Nocturnal Enuresis.

In Unani system of Medicine Nocturnal enuresis is mentioned as Baul Fil-Firash / Baul Bistari / Khwab me Peshab Nikal Jana.

It is the condition in which there is voiding during sleep. (Neend me Peshab khata ho jana). It is due to altered temperament of bladder and flaccidity in muscles of urinary bladder (Masana ki Sardi aur Azla ka Isterkha) This condition is seen more among boys.

As mentioned in various Unani literature cause of Baul Fil-Firash is “Isterkha” of urinary bladder which means loosening of muscle tone of Bladder. Another cause is Ratubat which means Moistening of bladder and altered temperament of bladder which causes loosening of muscle fibre.
