A member asked:
I have soft mushy brown stool for a week? no controll over holding in stool? and these past three days my stool has been green? and no pain or blood?

Soft stools: The color of the stool doesnt matter. It sounds like you have a viral infection, lactose intolerance or a reaction to something you ate. My best advice is to avoid all dairy products for 3-5 days and limit your diet to Bananas, rice, fresh apples, tea, dry toast and yogurt ( vanilla or lemon). The yogurt replenishes the good bacteria in yuur bowel.
