Your best bet to find out what they are is to see a gastroenterologist (GI) doctor. You will likely need to send a sample of the stool with the bright yellow “balls” in it to the lab to see if they can figure out what they are. Is there anything you are eating that has that appearance? From your description, it does sound like a foreign body of some sort. Call your GP to get referred to a GI doc

What you described is not a cause for concern. : You may take a fiber laxative like Metamucil and drink enough water daily so that your urine is colorless. For the long term you may try to increase your intake of fiber foods.
