Brief Answer:
Pelvic floor exercises advisable

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone through your query and understand your concerns. The fecal incontinence is related to the age related degenerative process and the loss of control over the nervous system. I would recommend you to do pelvic floor exercises (alternate contraction and relaxation of your pelvic muscles). It will help you in strengthening the pelvic muscles which are essential in preventing such incontinence.

Let me know if I could help further.
