A member asked:

I have been holding in my waste since i was in day care. i wait 2 or 3 days and then i go to the bathroom. what will happen to me if i keep this on?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Constipation: It is not good to hold your stool in, over time your rectum will stretch and you may lose the ability to sense the need to go stool, which may lead to accidents. You should try to have a soft stool every day or every other day.
