bowel

I have a great niece who is having problems with her bowels . She hates to go poop because it hurts her. She hold it , it seeps out and leaves a horrible smell. She is to the point where she cant smell it  herself anymore.  she is so numb she cant tell when she has to go or not. my niece took her to the dr , they said she just need to be potty trained all over again. we have given her  laxitives, bribes, everything we can think of .She has headache, she stays away from people, kids tease her. me and her nana believe it might be crohn's disease. she has all the symptom of it. My niece wont take to a specialist and we are worried. she is skin and bones, weighs nothing and her parent trat her like it her fault. she is 8yrs old

Google encoparesis and give the info to your niece. Retraining efforts can vary from simple to complex, largely depending on if there is any long term damage to the muscle tone of the bowel from chronic distension. It's not always as simple as it might seem. A specialist should be consulted if initial efforts don't produce results.
