What are the reasons that can cause fecal incontinence in children

Patient's question:

What are the reasons for long-term fecal incontinence in children?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, considering that the baby may have some digestive discomfort, incontinence of stool is different from diarrhea. It is often caused by chronic constipation. When the dry and hard stool accumulated in the intestines is expelled, the stool containing a large amount of water is also squeezed out, causing the stool to contaminate the diaper or underwear. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis to treat it accordingly. You can choose probiotics, Poria and Gentian Tablets, and Berberine Hydrochloride Tablets for treatment. Avoid cold and spicy foods, and maintain a light diet.
