Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I feel this might be having an urgency or voiding dysfunction. But very unusual to pass motions too.
It could be encopresis too which might be secondary to constipation. I suggest you to consult your padiatrician.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Sumanth Amperayani
