Fecal incontinence, or bowel incontinence, occurs when you can’t control your bowels and small amounts of feces involuntary pass. For most adults, this is an occasional problem. For others, however, it\u2019s a chronic condition.<\/p>

The most troublesome type of incontinence is urge incontinence, which is when you have an urgent need to defecate but can\u2019t make it to the bathroom in time. You might even pass stools when you don\u2019t realize you have to go.<\/p>

Fecal incontinence can be a debilitating disorder that leads to social isolation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
