Your diet is the issue, and the stool described is the result. Add fiber, decrease greens such as spinach/kale, decrease senna containing fruits such as prune, plum, peaches, cherries, blueberries, figs, dates, drink more water. This issue should resolve itself with diet regulation. Please write back if it persists.
