A member asked:
Constipation with large stools made up of pellets, very oddly shaped or lacking a definite form (sometimes cone shaped). is this normal for ibs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be: Ibs and other bowel conditions can cause all different sizes and shapes of your stool. Best to see a GI dr for evaluations, as they can determine alot from your history, the exam, and the description of your stools. Good luck.
