A
Feedback:
The client has fecal impaction because the large, hardened mass of stool is interfering with defecation. Iatrogenic constipation occurs as a consequence of other medical treatment. Secondary constipation is a consequence of a pathologic disorder. Fecal incontinence is the inability to control the elimination of stool.
