The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] I have a 7 year old that has always had trouble with not being able to tell when she has to poop.  She will mess her underwear a little before noticing.  When she does go her stool is very sticky and causes a large mess that is hard to wipe.  Stool is normal colored. What could cause the lack of control and the thick sticky stool?
[|AI|]  Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. You should be worried but not too much. There are two causes: first can reflect problems with stooling, relatively common constipation and less frequently occurring encopresis (also known a fecal incontinence or soiling). Other points of view: at the child Chat Doctor.  Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health.
