A member asked:
What does a stool of yellow watery mean? i've been fine stool wise all day, and have eaten normal healthy food
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Something you ate: didn't agree with you. A single stool of watery yellow has very little clinical significance. Colon transit time determines stool color and consistency. The faster the transit time, the more watery and lighter in color the stool. If the loose stools continue for more than 24 hours or if you see blood in stools you should seek medical attention.
