I usually only poo 4 times a week but recently i've been having 3-5 pops a day with stomach pains. what could this be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Difficult to answer: the info is very limited. There are many reasons, including constipation itself=if the colon "backs up" too much, then the pressure on the anal sphincter will be too much, and loose stools will start to come out. Other things include medications recently started or stopped, change in diet, stress, high acid in the stomach, gallbladder issues, Irritable Bowel, Inflammatory Bowel, etc...
