Pelvic floor exercises suitable for treating urinary incontinence

Condition analysis:
I would not worry about this one time episode of bowel incontinence. Since the stool was watery and smelly, this single episode could be a symptom of gastroenteritis (virus) or food poisoning (eating bad food). Usually, bowel incontinence from Alzheimer's will occur in the later stages of dementia, when the person is no longer amubulatory and the patient cannot make the connection for using the toilet to defecate.

I recommend watching him and see if the smelly, watery stools continue. If he has other episodes, then I would let his health care provider know. Recurrent bowel incontinence/diarrhea could be from a new medication, or health problems like GERD, an intestinal infection, or stomach problem.

Instructions:
Pelvic Floor (Kegel) Exercises: Pelvic floor exercises are effective in the early stage of Urinary Incontinence. Practice those exercises will improve the control of the bladder as well as reduce the leakage of urination. Moreover, the exercises are also good for relaxing stress and handling urge incontinence.

How to use:
Tighten the floor muscles of your pelvic and hold for 8 counts. In case the time is too long, just hold for the longest you can possibly
After that, relax your muscles for 8 counts and start again
Repeat 3 times per day, each time do 8 to 12 turns

In order to locate the pelvic floor muscles, you can follow these steps: while you are urinating, stop halfway and then restart. You can feel the muscles when you pause the urinating process which is the pelvic floor muscles.

Remember to consult with professional physical therapist for proper training technique. Also depend on your personal circumstance that the technique might vary.
