Question about my poop?!


Question: Question about my poop?
I know this is gross and weird but I looked it up on Google and couldn't find anything. My bowels are never consistent appearance wise, they always look different. But today I had one that I never saw before. It was brown but then looked like someone spray painted it yellow. Only one of the stools was like that though, the rest were brown. I'm almost positive it was fat just because of how it looked but I'm not sure. Stomach problems come from my mom's side and I've had stomach issues ever since I was a little kid. My diet is also not the healthiest but I've been changing that. Does anyone have an idea if it was fat and what it means. It really looked like someone spray painted this brown stool with yellow.

Certain persistent changes in stool color are characteristic for specific conditions:

?black, foul-smelling stool: intestinal bleeding (typically from the stomach and upper small intestine) due to ulcers, tumors; ingestion of iron or bismuth
?maroon stool: intestinal bleeding (from the middle intestine or proximal colon) due to ulcers, tumors, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis
?clay-colored stool: lack of bile due to blockage of the main bile duct
?pale yellow, greasy, foul-smelling stool: malabsorption of fat due to pancreatic insufficiency, as seen with pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, cystic fibrosis, celiac disease


There are many reasons for that type of color in your stool!!! But your diet can have a huge impact on your health of your stomach.

Its your diet. The only time to be concerned concerning your stool is if you have constant diareah, unexplained constipation, black stool or blood.
