my poops are small and solid. there is no smell. they are normal. it happens every time I pee
Brief Answer:
Common innervation is most probably the cause; faecal incontinence
Detailed Answer:
Hello once again ma'am.
Thank you for your response.
In my opinion, this is usually commonly seen in elderly women due to various conditions mainly related to nerve abnormalities. If this has been a more recent issue, then I would suspect other co-existing conditions like:
+Hemorrhoids
+Piles
+Multiple pregnancies
+Surgeries
+Uterine or vaginal prolapse
and a few other conditions.
The explanation for your stool being passed along with your urine is due to the common innervation these two reflexes share. This is nothing serious, but can be treated (most often with surgery).
I hope I have explained things in a manner best understood by you. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I would be more than happy to help.
