Stool Incontinence: Homeopathy Offers An Effective Treatment

The involuntary passage of stool due to lack of control over the bowel movements is known as stool incontinence or fecal incontinence. A person may have a sudden urge to pass stool, that if not attended urgently, can lead to a leakage of stool. This condition is known as urge incontinence. In some cases, a person unknowingly passes stool, a condition that is known as passive incontinence. The severity of this condition varies from minor leakage of stool to entire loss of bowel control. Stool incontinence can be treated effectively with homeopathic medicines. Aloe, Podophyllum, Causticum, and Hyoscyamus are the top natural remedies for stool incontinence.

I did chemo,radiation and had ileostomy. it was a loe anterior resection I went through. the surgeon told me ill be fine after reversal which is not the case. after ileostomy reversal I did on 22 October 2019 im suffering a lot from fecal incontinence. my surgeon now says he must put a permanent ileostomy. I was shocked to hear that.surely there must be some medicine to treat fecal incontinence. Im reluctant to do operation with this surgeon ost confidence in him.
