What Causes Bowel Incontinence With Pain On The Penis?

My son has been potty trained since 2, he is 3 now. He has started having multiple potty accidents in a day (up to 5 in a day) and even has had some issues with bowel movements. He tells me he doesn t realize he needed to go. He also has complained of his penis hurting. It is very random, it could be 5-6 weeks before he has another bad day. We have gone to the Dr s when it is occurring, no UTI and physical tests show good. I am concerned because he is a very compliant kid, if you ask him to go potty he sits and will go. Just want to make sure this could be an indicator for anything else.

I think this is a behaviour problem. Make a routine for going to potty twice daily at fixed times. Talk to him to relieve any anxiety. Proper toilet training may take some more time..... If he was profoundly constipated before the onset of this episode a course of laxative can help.
