Internal **** Sphincter Muscle?
 

Has anyone with MS been diagnosed with the nerves in this muscle not sending the messages to their brain?

TIA

which muscle is that? I'm assuming the word you used in the thread title was one that's not the usual medical term for whatever muscle it is.

Sphincter ani internus - or a-n-a-l sphincter muscle.

We have two **** sphincter muscles. One, the internal, is involuntary, meaning that we cannot control it, it is controlled by the brain.

The external, we control, consciously, such as when we tighten it, to hold back expelling as, in public, etc.

My internal muscle is not sending the message to my brain, to relax, and allow a bowel movement, etc.

Those are the medical terms as far as I know.

Thank you Blessings2You, for your clarification.

interesting what the forum's word censor censors. (medical forum, you'd think you'd be able to type that word without getting it starred out)

vinpocetine???
 

You might want to check out vinpocetine.

Besides curing MS and making you much smarter it also helps control smooth muscles.

It helps with some bladder and sphincter muscle control.

p.s. I take 10 mg three times a day and look how smart it has made me! Suggest you check PubMed and do a Google search.

Yes, Erin, I was surprised that it was censored.

Hi, jackD.

Thank you. I will definitley check out vinpocetine.

I see that it has indeed, made you quite intelligent. :)

just an FYI that it is vBulletin that has the built in word filters...and not all forums that run on vBulletin are health/medical

so this is *not* us censoring, it is a programming default
