My brother has autism and is 27, pees on the floor

[BrotherOfAutism]

Hi guys, new to the site.
I have a question. I am not autistic, but my brother is and he is an adult (age 27).
The problem is that he pees on the floor while standing and now all of a sudden he is peeing on the floor while going number 2. He is not pushing his privates inside the bowl, and not holding his privates. I have been trying to show him how to hold it, yet he still does it. This is something he has never done before in the 25 years of his life, he just started doing this about a year ago. He has always held his privates.
My father thinks it has to do with any sexual behaviors but to me that doesn't make any sense. Has anyone else experienced this before?

Welcome!

I'm wondering if he could have a urinary tract infection or something similar that is causing it to be uncomfortable down there. Is he verbal? If so can you ask him if he has any pain?

 

[BrotherOfAutism]

Yes he is very high functioning. He has no pain there.

Welcome, @BrotherOfAutism to AF.

Child training toilets used to have a cup mounted on them just for that purpose. Maybe, a medical supply place has a toilet ring that has been so modified for adults...?

Short-term fix: if he is hitting the same area each time, you could place a bucket there.

They are called SPLASH GUARDS.

If they are too expensive, you may be able to get one as a prescription item.

If he's verbal and high functioning, have you asked him what the problem is?
