A member asked:
Can clostridium difficle be seen in soft stool. or is it only watery diaherra?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Either...: C. Difficile, when pathologic, is a bacterial infection that may be accompanied by colonoscopically visible signs of colitis which then warrants specialized antibiotic treatment ; needs documentation of eradication. Often c.Difficile causes only mild irritation of the colon lining, or no readily appreciable mucosal changes unless biopsies are taken. Sometimes, only stool analysis is diagnostic.
