What to do about fecal incontinence after anal fistula surgery

It is normal to have secretions or intestinal fluid, anal gland fluid, or fecal water flowing out of the incision after anal fistula surgery with the unhealed incision, which is not fecal incontinence and will disappear naturally as the incision heals. If a small amount of fecal water occasionally comes out after the incision has healed, it can be cleaned up in time. Daily anal lifting exercises will reduce or eliminate the overflow of feces and liquid as the incision scar softens and the anus closes well. Severe fecal overflow or inability to control stool on your own requires surgery for anal sphincter repair. This type of fecal incontinence is very rare, so it is important to seek medical attention from a large, regular hospital rather than a small, unqualified clinic or private hospital. The anal lifting exercise can generally increase the strength of the sphincter muscle, which can be contracted 100-200 times a day. The specific practice is to contract the anus when inhaling to maintain 3-5 seconds, and then relax for 3-5 seconds, which counts once, and then contract and relax in this way, can exercise the strength of the anal sphincter to improve the situation of fecal incontinence.
