A member asked:
What could be wrong if my stool is pale and my urine is dark?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Here are some ...: The combo of pale stool and dark urine clinically suggests possible occurrence of poor bile excretion into duodenum from bile duct obstruction by stone or tumor. So, bring the info on the onset, degree, duration, evolution, & progress of the symptoms and signs over time to Doc for analysis + physical exam + timely tests so to deduce possible Dx and receive reasonable Rx / care.
