The purpose of this study is to test whether electrical stimulation of the skin in the pelvic area (near the genitals) can reduce the reflexes that cause bowel accidents in people with spinal cord injuries. Current bowel treatments either involve diet and medications or surgery. This study will evaluate whether electrical stimulation can be an alternate option for bowel management. Researchers will: * Use an FDA approved Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) device off-label * Compare a target stimulation level to a placebo stimulation level Participants will: * Use electrical stimulation on the skin in the pelvic area for 6-8 hours each day for 4 weeks at home * Visit the research center 3 times to participate in exams and answer questions * Keep a daily diary of their bowel symptoms and stimulation times
