Difficulty controlling wind or stool is known as bowel or faecal incontinence. It can range from occasional leakage and staining to sudden urgency or a complete loss of bowel control.

Possible causes include muscle or nerve damage, previous childbirth, pelvic floor problems, surgery, constipation and certain bowel conditions. Although common, bowel incontinence is not something you simply have to live with.

A confidential specialist assessment can identify the contributing factors and explore options such as lifestyle changes, medication, pelvic floor treatment or surgery.
