What is the situation when feces leak from the buttocks every few days?

Patient's question:

Two months ago, I had a bowel movement about every five days, and for the days in between, there was always leakage of stool from the anus. I couldn't use the squat toilet to pass stool, and sometimes I had bowel movements two times a day with similar symptoms.

Doctor's answer:

The symptoms caused by infant diarrhea are due to symptoms resulting from a viral infection, such as fever, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. These symptoms primarily aim to reduce the occurrence of dehydration. It is recommended to promptly provide symptomatic treatment, including oral rehydration solutions.
There are many factors that can cause pediatric digestive diseases. If a child is diagnosed with a digestive disorder, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, assist with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to let their children develop picky eating or food preferences and maintain a balanced diet.
