here it is. what possibly could it be? i had dealt with lots of stress and anxiety a few weeks ago now and havent been the same since. my diet and sleep was poor and what led to issues in my stomach and anus. i first started with round multiple stools like when youre constipated and dehydrated. there was some mucus when i would pass but generally needed to push hard to get it all out. i dealt with little amounts then having to go back right away to finish more a few times. took laxatives which caused green diarrhea for a day and half. its not back to being brown more and somewhat solid but also flaky and oaty like, i have been eating nuts/oatmeal/granola type foods. its easier to poop and i got a few times a day but the blue things arent always there either. it seems like because its soft i cant fully eliminate tiny bits of fecal matter from my hairs and when i fart is just a silent puff of air.

    Are you referring to the little flap tag at the top of your anus, if so, that's normal, we all have one.

    If your stool is soft, when you pass wind, your probably leaking a little bit of liquid poop.

    Said poop is catching on the hair and drying in. Wash the area several times throughout the day.

    However, when in doubt, have your doc check it out.
