What Causes Sudden Increase In Size Of Faeces?
Last night I had the urge to go to the bathroom and my stool was unbelievably, unusually large. It was quite a few inches in diameter and it REALLY hurt coming out. I have been sore since last night. Today I went to the bathroom and they were much smaller little balls and this time they had white string like particles on them along with a little red. There was no sign of blood either time. I am usually very regular and I am trying to figure out what is wrong.
