A member asked:
I've been gassy w/ crampy pain for 2 days with very soft stools. today my stool was soft & brown, but there were also 3 greenish harder oval pieces of stool along the outside. could diverticulitis (haven't been diagnosed)cause this? or is it my ibs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Two days of soft stools is most likely a food-born infection or a virus. There are many other possible reasons. See a doctor.
