My son had a Foley catheter and they forced it through the last sphincter. He screamed in pain and has had incontinence ever since. Could the sphincter have been damaged?

Yes, the sphincters can be damaged. Also urinary catheters can introduce bacteria and lead to chronic bladder infections with incontinence. Have him checked first for UTI. A cystoscopy can show if there is a structural problem.

Why when you fart gooey stuff comes out?
The "gooey stuff" is feces, often soft and in a small amount. The anus has a sphincter that holds it closed and should be "patent"--meaning, do the job it is supposed to do.

If the sphincter has been damaged, or if the expulsion of gas is forceful, it can force small bits of fecal matter through the anus.These kind of expulsions are also called "wet farts" because it can feel like you messed yourself even when you did not.
