What Could Be The Reason For Having A Fluffy And Mushy Stool?
Hi Doctor, good evening. My stool does not look like rope. My stool looks like in between semi and regular stool. It does not look like torpedo. It looks like fluffy/mushy always. If i take medicine like O2 (ornadizole &ofloxacin) and VIBACT. My stool appears normal for couple of days and again fluffy/mushy stool reappears. What is the cause and remedy?

you should have a stool exam and stool culture done. you might have an intestinal infection that is ongoing or that is chronic. Consult with a gastroenterologist also. Keep yourself hydrated for every bowel movement especially and be on a high fiber diet.
