2 Yellow stool

Yellow mushy stool allows you to cleanse the body of pathological microbes that can infect the body. It is the infection that provokes the appearance of a similar color and consistency. It happens that diarrhea occurs due to the development of inflammatory processes developing in the intestinal mucosa. Very often yellow liquid stool appears due to indigestibility of food, which indicates the development of various pathologies of the stomach.

Rotavirus infection also contributes to the appearance of the yellow stool. It is quite easy to determine it. With its development, the body temperature rises, and feces on the 2nd day get a gray shade. However, on the problems with the intestine the infectious process does not end. The patient can also observe a runny nose, pain when swallowing and redness in the throat. Often, patients complain of a lack of appetite and a general decline in strength. This pathological condition was called intestinal flu.

3 Admixtures of mucus

The mucus stool with mucus contaminants in both adults and children is a symptom of dangerous changes occurring in the digestive system. To develop such a state can, for example, with the most common cold. This can be observed when eating sour-milk mixtures, porridge with mucus and fruits.

It happens that the developed runny nose leads to the allocation of mucous masses in the esophagus, where they come directly into the intestine. The impurities of mucus can also be detected by the penetration of infection into the intestines of various harmful bacteria. If a person has contracted dysentery, then such a patient also has mucus impurities in the products of defecation.

4 Symptom in the morning

Hardly anyone can be surprised by the appearance of a loose stool in the morning. However, this phenomenon is both acute and chronic. If it has acquired a chronic form, then it indicates the accumulation of serious problems in the body, which requires medical intervention.

If there are isolated cases of diarrhea in the morning, then you can determine its cause yourself. This can happen, for example, because of the intake of laxatives the day before.

5 Rapid mushy stool

Rapid diarrhea can be a sign of a variety of pathological conditions. A liquid stool may not be a symptom, but an independent pathology. Frequent mushy stools can happen with periods with a break for 1 month. This pathological condition occurs in acute or chronic form. If we talk about the first form, it often develops due to infection with some intestinal infection. This can happen due to non-compliance with hygiene rules when washing vegetables and fruits. If the liquid stool happens several dozen times during the day, which is accompanied by blood secretions from the anal passage, purulent secretions in the background of bouts of vomiting and a rise in temperature, this may indicate the development of salmonellosis. If there is infection with cholera, then a practically watery stool is observed, which leads to dehydration of the body.

If there is a rapid watery stool, accompanied by painful sensations, the appearance of blood and mucus, then mandatory medical intervention is necessary. In this case, the doctor will identify the true cause of this condition and prescribe adequate therapeutic procedures. In addition, it is necessary to adhere to a diet prescribed by the doctor with the exception of foods that can contribute to the appearance of a mushy stool.

Regardless of the possible cause, you should not let this state go by itself or engage in self-diagnosis and self-medication. Do not also postpone the visit to the clinic. Ignoring this state can have serious consequences. After all, the state of health of each person is in his hands. Doctors can identify the cause of the failure and make the necessary appointments in order for the body to work again as a clock.
