A member asked:

What does yellow coloured stool mean? i had this condition. is this harmful? but research suggests that yellow coloured stool is caused by block in bile duct. i'm worried.. please reply doctor?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

There is nothing wrong with yellow colored stool. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
