Is this bowel incontinence?

[bobbilly]

After I have done a poo I always get fecal smearing in my underpants which sometimes shows on my joggy bottoms as a fecal stain which is quite embarrassing. I had one person at the day centre I attend point it out on a walk, she had intellectuals disabilities so had no filters but was embarrassing. This is after I make sure I wipe properly and thoroughly I still get seepage.

I believe I have a weak sphincter muscles as I also have post void dribble when having a poo too. I tried doing kegel exercises but it continues. I started wearing nappies 24/7 and this helps with the embarrassment. Although I would like to lose control I am actually worried at the same time. With my level of muscle leakage if I continue will I actually end up more incontinent?

Do you clean with water after having a BM?
A wet wipe / wash cloth / shower etc

I was going to ask, “do you know if you’re voiding completely?”
