Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Can Cause Frequent Bowel Movements And Bowel Incontinence?
I am never constipated, and have frequent bowel movements. Most are very soft, and not a lot at a time. Mostly lighter golden brown. Rarely do I have a more solid, darker normal-looking movement. I will wipe until I think I'm done. Usually have to wipe a lot more than what seems should be normal. Seems almost too wet. Ten minutes later I start itching again, and will wipe more. almost like there's more bowel constriction and drainage. I drink coffee daily. Any ideas?
