General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

* The bowel and bladder incomplete emptying is from the neurologic condition and hence laxative is not working.

* The basic control and cure of the neurology will only be able to give back the power of control of urination and bowel movements precisely over a period of time.

Have to keep patience and be in regular follow up with your consultant.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
