I have watery stool. it's not diarrhea and it's not bad but i would like to know what this is. ?

Loose stool: normal stool consistency can range from nearly liquid to very solid. What matters is whether it gives you other symptoms and if it is a change from your norm. If you desire stool with more substance, a good place to start is by increasing your fiber intake. Even taking a fiber supplement such as Metamucil may be a good idea. See your doctor if this does not help. Good luck.
