What Causes Recurring Uncontrollable Urge To Have A Bowel Movement?

What would cause a sudden uncontrollable urge to have a bowel movement? When this happens, it is diarrhea and will evacuate no matter where I am. Happens about once a month. No camping or pain and usually only happens one time. It is like the intestines just flush themselves.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

As per your history, it may be due to irritable bowel syndrome.

For further assessment you may require Colonoscopy after gastroenterologist consultation.

You may require tablet loperamide in case of frequent bowels.

Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition.

Take soft diet. Keep your self hydrated and do regular blood pressure monitoring.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale, General & Family Physician
