A member asked:
I've had two bowel movements today. in each instance, the stool looked normal but there was a bluish-green quality to the water near the feces. help.

Stool: If the stools were perfectly normal in color and consistency, it doesn't appear that the pigment in the toilet water indicates a bowel abnormality. If further bowel movements appear abnormal, consult your physician who can inspect and test the stool for hidden blood. I feel that the pigment in the toilet water was some extraneous pigment.
