I recently had hepitis(inflammation) in my
liver and mono according to my doctor, i
was sick for like 3-4 weeks. I rarely
went to poop but I did vomit whatever I
ate. But now after the sickness has
subsided I use the bathroom regularly and
my stool is not as big as it was. I
constantly feel like going to the bathroom
after i eat a lot. So before my sickness
I was maybe going to the bathroom once a
week, now I go at least once a day?
Previous to my sickness, I had an internal
hemroid where I was treated by a
specilalist, ever since then I have not
seen any blood in my stool. This was not
that recent either. Till this day I
haven't seen any blood of any kind, I
think i saw one small spot of blood awhile
back, but i was havin a diffucult time
going to the bathroom that day, but other
than it I havent seen any blood.
As for the stool, It looks like regular
poop, but when I used to go to the
bathroom my stool was quite larger, and I
would prolounge my bathroom use to 4-7
days. Now its once a day at least.
I've had no weight loss other than when i
was sick, infact I've gained like 15-20
pounds.
I am a male, 19 years old.
I don't feel any pain, my stomach rubbles
a lot more. I dont feel weak or anything
like, I lift weights and run almost every
day. I barely drink anymore.
A lot of people have told me its a good
thing that I go to the bathroom more now,
but I've read bowel movement is a symptom
of colon cancer.
If anyone could maybe help shed some light
on this for me, I'd really appreciate it.

I've heard that a healthy digestive system
will expel excrement after each large
meal...up to 3 times a day. Are you
concerned that your BMs are too frequent?

yes. My brother is medically inclined,
and he likes to scare me telling me things
to make me think I have some crazy
disease, but its not like it isnt
possible, I'm gonna see a doctor anyways
this week.
My way of thought is this, this change in
bowel movement was caused by my recent
sickness, but now when I use the bathroom
my stool is quite small and it goes down a
lot easier then before I was sick. BEfore
it often was diffucult and very large,
which is what I beilieved caused my
internal hemroid.
I only feel bloated after I've eaten, I'm
not gonna say I don't eat as much mainly
because I still do eat a lot. Lke for
example, I'm laying in bed now my stomach
is rumbling and I feel as if I can use the
bathroom, With this change in bowel
movement I feel no pain whatsoeva. I do
see frequent farting since my sickness,
but again I beilieve I could of been
farting alot before

OK. Well check in after you visit the
Doc...but it seems that you're actually
describing a healthy bowel instead of a
sick one. What do you mean by "Small
stool"...?
