What Causes Bowel Incontinence And Pain In The Back?

Hi. Since having a radical hysterectomy I have had bowel incontinence. Also a searing pain in my groin radiating underneath which goes numb as if I have had anaesthetic & chronic pain in lower back. I cannot move when this happens. I was given a Piresteen kit to clean out my bowel , but after using am in awful pain. Had an MRI this week , no herniated disk. They said I could have nerve damage due to hysterectomy. I have been diagnosed with nerve damage by bowel clinic. Do you think this could be down to my op ?. Thank you.
