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.
son has been vomiting before he has a bowel movement for some time now. He has incontinence due to spina bifida and takes miralax to soften stool and uses mini enemas. This used to happen once in a while, but now almost everytime he feels he needs to have a bowel movement. Please help. He is six years old
Constipation in children is associated with an increased incidence of spina bifida. Individualized biofeedback combined with electrical stimulation improves both the symptoms and the objective anorectal function measurements. Please consult your neuro physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
