A member asked:
This has happened maybe a few times before over throughout the years, but should i have concern if my stool is light grayish-brown? only occurred once
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely a problem: If it has happened a few times over the years it is most probably a dietary issue. If it happens consistently or frequently it can be of concern and would see a doctor for an evaluation.
