I have a bowel movement, at times pebbles comes out first and then the main log comes out. everything else seems fine. i wipe 2/3 x and its clean. is there any cause for concern ? . sometimes the pebble floats and sinks?

What you described is not a cause for concern. The "pebbles" suggest that you may not be drinking enough water. Drink enough water daily so that your urine is mostly colorless. Wish you good health!
