Is It Normal To Pass Stool After Dinner?
Hi My daugher who is 14 has a habit/urge of passing stool almost every night after the meal. She has this problem for the last 6 months or so i.e. soon after she started to have periods which comes once in two month. This is really effecting her growth as she looks down and out on most occasions. Could you please suggest what could be the problem.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your daughter, in fact this is not the problem, ask her to eat slowly, take her time in eating, due to peristalsis wave this could cause feeling of defecation and this is happening due to fast eating, this is not the disease of any kind, and nothing to worry about this, neither this would affect her growth, hope this information helps, take care.
