Hi. ate colon strictures common with diverticulitis ? i been passing stool past two days but been small and kinda narrow. today i finally had a more normal bowel movement. had a colonoscopy not long ago and was told have diverticulitis. thank u?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can be normal for stools to sometimes be narrow, dependent a lot on diet, fiber intake, and colon spasm. It is probably not related to your diverticulosis. I would increase the amount of fiber in your diet and try to focus on remaining well hydrated. See your doctor if the symptoms persist. Good luck.
