What Causes Diarrhea?
My mother is experiencing a change in how her bowel movements look. She has lost control of her bladder and bowel, but now her bowel seems to come out loose and she describes it looks like small thinner pieces, like enlarged hairs, wiggly and lots of them at a time and very dark brown. She has this happen sometimes 3 or 4 times a day.
