What Could It Be If Having White Ridges In Stools Eve After Taking Anti Parasite Medicines?
Hi. I have white ridges or stripes in my faeces. I thought these were parasites but I have just finished 2 courses of anti parasite meds and it hasn't changed. I have only seen it a few times (3 or 4), not all the time, and the white bits come away from the faeces fairly easily, and seem spongy, or squidgy. Any idea what this could be?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern if you have a doubt about the worm infestation then you need to get done the stool examination routine and microscopic this would rule out the possibility of infestation moreover the treatment of this greatly varies from the species to species if the proper treatment is not given then it would be difficult to eradicate the parasites, have a nice day.
