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.
HI,
My father is having a hard time controlling his stool, and he is a 30 year diabetic with Kidney problems...Does this mean his kidneys are about done and he needs dialysis...or could it be a reaction from the 10 different medicines that he is taking for his heart, kidneys, and diabetese.
The inability to control stools has nothing to do with kidney issue , it is due to neurological problem involving anal sphincter.
Hope this will help to clear your doubt.
Wishing him fine recovery.
Always welcome for any further assistance anytime .
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
