AdvertisementI m suffering from ibs from more than 7 years, im not sure if their is problem with my stool or no.

 

i usually pass stool 2- 3 times a day , 3rd time is not known, mostly it occurs when im out of home.

 

mostly my stool is like mud, with some time mucus attached with it. when i hold stool for long time like 3-4 hours it half comes as flat stool ,

 

im worried when i pass stool half is ok and half is broken into many pcs , is it possible to share pictures of stool so any expert tell me if its normal or no for which im very much worried about

 

other than going 2- 3 times and worried about texture and shape of stool i have no other symptom,

    Changes in stool texture, colour and consistency are common with IBS.  Do not worry. We are not experts on this site because few of us are doctors.  Your best expert to consult would be your doctor.
