What Causes Yellow Stools With Diarrhea?
Question: I am having yellow stool bowel movement is almost dirarra. What could be causing this? I took alot of pain meds and strong antibiotic for a absest tooth. Could that have caused this, and how can I get my bowel movements right again.
Brief Answer:
Are the antibiotics over?
Detailed Answer:
HI and thanks for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this change in bowel movements and the consistency of your stools. Antibiotics are certainly more likely to be responsible for this. as you get done with the drugs, your stools would certainly return to normal. I will encourage you to keep eating healthy and stay calm and positive about the fact that this would soon be over.
I hope this reassures and calms your fears. I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free and ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

Hi,
These could be possible symptoms of c-diff but unlikely. What specific antibiotic did you take as this is common with broad spectrum antibiotics such as clindamycine and amoxicillin?
