A member asked:
Is it ok to have lighter colored stool with constipation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's OK: Color of the stool is not usually too important. Stool can be any shade of green, brown, yellow and still be considered normal. Stool that is white, floats or has blood in it is more worriesome.
