Spinocerebellar Ataxia

2026-08-08 05:02:21
My mom has SCA (Spinocerebellar Ataxia). She sometimes doesn't realise that she needs to get fresh or has pressure to get fresh and dirty the clothes in that case. Can some medicines be given to avoid this? On the contrary sometimes she gets feeling that she has to pass stool 3-4 times a day while she doesn't get fresh
