Every time i go to the toilet i have these weird things in clumps in my stool. after ive had a closer inspection i can only describe them as looking like roots from a plant, with the same texture as a branched stick. they're not alive, and they don't move, someone PLEASE shed some light??!!!
Will attach photos as soon as I figure out how to!

So this morning I was trying to go #2 and i only did a little bit. I wiped like normal and then got into the shower to get ready for work. As i was washing my butt area, I felt something hard sticking out of my you know what and I pulled it out and it was long like 3 or 4 inches long!! Hard like straw and yellow-ish, orange-ish color. I took a picture of it and saved it. I'm so scared I'm gonna take it to the doctor.

CRYSTAL, have you see anyone about this yet? I'm noticing the same in my stool and am concerned. I would have described as 2-3 inch flat plastic strings but think your description of straw or hay is more fitting. Please let me know what you find out. Thank you.

yes. i thought back and realized I had kale and the stems or backbone of the leaves were not taken off ahead of time

wow! has anyone helped u or did this eventually resolve on its own?... it looks like your body is screaming a message to u. my family is getting rashes for no known reason popping up in different locations and then disappearing like they were never there. for my husband its one less thing to think about for me its part of a puzzle that needs solving. i would add that our daughter is 2 years old in one year post-liver transplant. So all of our symptoms for anything go into a permanent mental file, always staying vigilant to keep her as safe as possible. Thank you!

I had something similar this morning. Was like a thin piece of hay or twig, light brown/ tan, yellowish. About 2 1/2-3 inches long. I had raw collard green wraps that were de-stemmed but maybe a few stem pieces in the leaves still there on Saturday. 3 days later my stool had this. Is this maybe what it was caused by?
