What Does Ring Of Soft Tissue Or Mucus In Stool And Vomiting Indicate?
My 4 year old woke up in the wee hours vomiting (not a lot) but vomited about every hour for a 3 hour span. After the vomiting he started having diarrhea and one of his stools was solid with what looked like a ring of soft tissue or mucus. What is this foreign object?

Hi...I would be glad to help if you can upload an image of the ring of mucoid tissue. Mostly I suspect it to be a mucus membrane from the intestine. Nothing to worry if the kid is normal.
Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry.
