A member asked:
Was constipated over a week. after laxative i had two large bm's and then passed a brownish-pink, long string that had bubbles in it.what coul it be?

Constipated: No idea what that could be. Some general recommendations would be to make sure that you have had a recent evaluation of your colon (ie. Colonoscopy) as a change in bowel habits, constipation and a pink tinge could represent something else going on in your colon.
