Loose bowels that dump and look like coffee grounds but not black?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It could be a sign of bleeding so you should see your doctor and have your stools tested for microscopic blood. A blood test to see if you are anemic would also be helpful. Blood in the stools can also result in the stools passing faster, thus resulting in loose stools. So, see your doctor ASAP and get this evaluated. Best of luck to you!
