A member asked:
Stools too hard to pass. took mom yesterday. diarrhea and now soft stools with a lot of nonstop stomach rumbling and gurgling. is this okay?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
This is common: If you have been constipated, soft, liquid stool will back up behind the hard stools that are blocking inside your colon. When you take MOM and remove that hard stool blockade, the soft, liquid stools behind will follow. The gurgling and rumbling should eventually resolve as your GI tract calms down. If it does not and you continue to have severe diarrhea or pain, see your doctor.
