Patient's question:
My daughter is 9 years old. She usually understands everything, but recently, for the past two months, she has been having bowel incontinence, sometimes once or twice a day, and sometimes multiple times. So, what are the causes of bowel incontinence in a 9-year-old child?Doctor's answer:
It should be a symptom of fecal incontinence, which may be caused by underdeveloped brain nerve function or other underlying conditions such as hidden spinal cord defects. Your baby should be taken to a professional public hospital for examination to confirm the diagnosis. Under the guidance of hospital doctors, neurotrophic drugs should be used for treatment. The baby should be fed reasonably, eating fresh vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins.
