I pulled a stringy piece out when i made a poop ?

Normal : Occasionally, miscellaneous things pass through our intestines when we poop. This can include ingested hairs, threads, undigested corn silk fibers, and other such materials. Not to worry. The other thing that most people are concerned about- Intestinal worms typically show up in poop as soft segments or mucusy clumps. If you continue finding stringy pieces in your poop, talk to a Dr.
