What Causes White Spots In Stool?
I had some white spots in my feces and I was curious as to what it could be. I havent eaten anything white, and I havent been having any stomach pain or loss of appetite. Could this just be a temporary think like maybe fat deposits (I have been a little constipated) or is it something of concern?
