Small, soft stools but difficult to pass!
Posted , 6 users are following.
Does anyone else get this. On the Bristol Stool Chart I would say I'm often passing no.5 but although they are small, soft pieces they don't come out that easily (sometimes with a bit of mucous). It worries me as I always associate difficulty passing as being constipated but wouldn't that mean hard, pebbly stools? I'm confused and worried.

I do drink loads. I am on the low fodmap diet and although I had this before I went on the diet it's returned again. I eat oats and veg so think I have enough fibre but not sure?!

I have oats and fruit/veg but no wheat/gluten. I'll try prune juice.

omg same!!! Well mine is a bit harder but today, I had constipation- ish AND diarrhea at the same time. Like It would be liquidity but there are a few small and THIN (also it breaks apart so it's soft i guess) pieces. Got colon cancer scares again. I just turned 14 and I have so much bad anxiety and colon cancer scares really messes with my mind. Now I'm stressed out with the constipation and diarrhea at the same time. Could just be IBS maybe?
