🚼 Fecal Incontinence in Children in Shebin El-Kom – Treatment with Dr. Nesma Khaled El-Ghalban
Fecal incontinence, also known as “encopresis,” is a condition that affects many children over the age of 4. It can be very stressful for mothers because it affects the child’s confidence and psychological well-being, and may cause embarrassment at school or within the family. Many parents think the child is “not paying attention” or “has no feeling,” but the truth is that this problem has clear causes and effective treatment when handled correctly.
At the Clinic of Dr. Nesma Khaled in Shebin El-Kom, we treat the problem from its roots, not just the symptoms. Fecal incontinence can be caused by physical, psychological, or behavioral factors—so a complete treatment plan is necessary.
💡 Causes of Fecal Incontinence in Children:
Chronic constipation: Stool buildup in the rectum reduces sensation over time.
Fear of using the toilet or a previous unpleasant experience.
Strict or harsh parenting style or punishment related to toilet control.
Mild psychological issues such as anxiety or stress.
Rare physical causes affecting nerves or muscles responsible for bowel control.
The important thing to know is that this is not laziness or carelessness. In fact, the child feels embarrassed, upset, and really wants to get better.
✅ Treatment Approach with Dr. Nesma El-Ghalban:
Careful evaluation of the child’s condition to identify the main cause.
Treating constipation or inflammation if present.
Behavioral training to help the child regain control.
Adjusting diet to prevent constipation.
Psychological and behavioral support sessions without putting pressure on the child.
Our goal is to help the child regain confidence and control bowel movements naturally without fear or pain.

The problem is detected early.
