    If it was my child I certainly would be concerned. I guess for starters ask your child's Doctor to rule out any physical conditions. Once that is ruled out then you should have your child see a child Psychiatrist.


    Please try and get to the bottom of this.


    Good Luck.

    Rejoice, your son is alive and full of life.   Don't make a big deal of it or it could be worse.  Just act normally when around him.  he'll grow out of this for sure, soon.

    Look up encorpresis.

    This can be a very serious problem.

    take him to a medical doctor first! If he can not find a reason, take him to a psychologist. Something is terrible wrong.

    Probably not too serious a problem.depending on how often it happens.If it is for every bowel movement I would suggest that it is a matter of persistant training.
