How do i treat a weak rectal muscle?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Kegel exercises: You can look this up on the web, but lie on your back with empty bladder. Then contract lower abdominal muscles (which will also tighten anal sphincter), hold for 6 seconds, relax for 6 seconds and repeat 6-10 times/session. Repeat several times daily. Eat fiber regularly and drink 8 x 8oz glasses of water, to maintain stool size. In the event you are inserting anything rectally, stop that.
