Common causes of fecal incontinence include diarrhea, constipation, and muscle or nerve damage. The muscle or nerve damage may be associated with aging or with giving birth.

I'm feeling this pain and a choking sensation right in the middle of my chest, and I just can't eat or drink anything. It's like there's air trapped in there sometimes. What's going on with me?

It sounds like you may have severe acid reflux or possibly an esophageal spasm. Avoid eating or drinking for now, and sit upright. Try sipping on warm water to ease discomfort, and seek immediate medical attention to rule out any cardiac or severe gastrointestinal issues.

I've been dealing with this issue for the past month where I'm coughing up this jelly-like mucus. It's really sticky and gets stuck in my throat, so I'm always trying to clear it out. I think it might be related to some gastric problems, but my lungs seem okay since I can run and walk without any problems. Do you have any suggestions or ideas on what might be going on? I've got some pictures of the mucus that I can show.

It sounds like you might be experiencing post-nasal drip or mucus production related to gastric reflux. While your lungs seem unaffected, I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider to check for conditions like acid reflux or sinus issues. In the meantime, staying hydrated and avoiding triggers like spicy foods may help.
