What Causes Fecal Incontinence And Constipation Despite Using Probiotics?

I had severe case of constipation and hemorrhoids when I was 26 or so. Ever since then, I have a horrible problem that is too embarrassing to talk about. I can have a bowel movement, and get completely clean. I generally use wet wipes or some equivalent to gwt as clean as possible. Then sometimes, 15 minutes or so after that, it s like I never wiped sometimes. This can happen as much as 4 to 6 times post defication. It s absolutely frustrating making 10 trips to the toilet 2 hours after going to make sure I don t stink. Is there anything I can do? I ve tried probiotics, changes in diet, etc. All of which help some, but the problem is still there.
