Embarassing question, but I may have mild fecal incontinence, possibly due to internal hemorrhoid. Today, I wiped (not after a BM) to check for leakage, and saw a dark flake on the wipe. Brown I think. Could it have been solid fecal matter coming out?
Do internal hemorrhoids commonly cause mild fecal leakage, or is this a really rare symptom? I think I had some of this with internal hemorrhoids in the past, and I know it's technically possible, but not sure how common?
Do people get fecal incontinence after hemorrhoid surgery?
I've had a little bit of yellow leakage from anus. I think this is fecal leakage due to hemorrhoids (because I've had problems with internal hemorrhoids before), but could it be mucus or a sign of an infection? No pain or other symptoms?
I have been struggling with cleaning after bowel movements as I have 3 internal hemerroids and fissure which is healing well. I wash with water but there is no sign of fecal stain except discharge and bad smell. What could cause this problem?
