Irregular Bowel Movement (stool)

[CollegeGirlMI]

So Im going to explain this the best I can...lately I have been pooping liquidy stool. The bulk of the stool sinks to the bottom but I have floaties. These floaties look like either dead skin or little pieces of colored film. It literally looks like someone sprinkled spices in my toilet. The stool kind of burns and when I wipe I can't tell if there is mucus but it certainly isnt stool

Please Help!!!

I would wait till the week is over then if it still is happening call a doctor because it might if been just something you ate

Spicy foods can cause the "burn". As a matter of fact jalapenos will with out fail cause the burn.
For me eating oranges or any citrus fruit causes a burn and the little floaties in my runny BM. Corn,slaw,and salad causes the floaties for me as well.

The symptoms of mild diarrhea include:

    * Abdominal bloating or cramps
    * Thin or loose stools
    * Watery stool
    * A sense of urgency to have a bowel movement
    * In some cases, nausea (upset stomach) and vomiting

In addition to the symptoms described above, symptoms of severe diarrhea include:

    * Blood, mucus, or undigested food in the stool
    * Weight loss
    * Fever

Severe diarrhea may be a sign of a more serious illness. Contact your health care provider if you have prolonged diarrhea or a fever that lasts more than 24 hours. Also, see your health care provider promptly if vomiting prevents you from drinking liquids to replace lost fluids.

Lately? How long?

Any other symptoms like constipation, bloating, nausea, fever (even if only slightly rised), itchy skin...?

Intestinal parasites (worms), food poisoning...Crohn's disease, diverticulitis are some common causes.
