What Causes Bowel Incontinence And Flatulence?

Hi am seem to be losing my bowel often instead of just being flatulence like before. I wake up often to having gone in my bed. This has become very embarrassing. I feel like a Toddler again. Yesterday when I went to the bathroom it came out blood. Any thoughts?

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Detailed evaluation is needed to rule out any sphincter dysfunction. Some neurological diseases can also cause similar symptoms. Uncontrolled diabetes can also cause weakness of nerves and loss of bowel control. Consult a gastroenterologist and he will direct you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
