History and Symptoms
- Inability to retain feces (bowel incontinence)
- Passing stool in inappropriate places (generally in the child's clothes)
- Secretive behavior associated with bowel movements
- Constipation and hard stools
- Occasional passage of very large stool that almost blocks up the toilet
- Painful defecation
- Blood in Stools (this is usually due to painful fissures in anus)
- Stool-withholding behaviour: Child may be noted to spend long periods of time standing in a corner prior to soiling. This can be mistaken for exaggerated attempts at defecation.
- (If also Day-time-wetting (urinary incontinence not at night) co-exists, an organic cause has to be sought)
