What are the symptoms of fecal incontinence?
8 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Involuntary leakage: The symptoms are highly distressing to most patients. They can range from leakage on to the underwear of a small amount of liquid stool where a small stain is noted, to involuntary passage (with or without warning symptoms of rectal fullness or urgency) of larger amounts of liquid - or occasionally even solid - stool. This can require a complete change of clothing and severe social limitations.
