Is paste like yellow stool common with IBS? No matter how much fiber I add or how much water I drink, the majority of my stool is like this. I eat apple, banana, and oats daily in the morning for fiber. I do not eat junk food, totally stopped for a year. Is this IBS? Also, if I drink milk or eat spicy food, I have observed smelly gas after that. Please guide. LFT, CBC, urine, and thyroid are all normal.

Yellow, paste like stools can occur in IBS, especially with your pattern of symptoms. Adding fiber and hydration helps, but IBS can still cause loose stools, bloating, and gas after milk or spicy food. It is good you avoid junk and eat a healthy diet. Since your LFT, CBC, thyroid, and urine tests are normal, this is reassuring. You can book a Stool Routine and Microscopy test to rule out infections or fat malabsorption if symptoms continue.

View allI am a 29 year old single female. I have been experiencing stomach pain and diarrhea for several months. I consulted a gastroenterologist, who suggested that stress or IBS might be causing these symptoms. He prescribed Tab Novamcin RT, Cap Imodium, and Tab Revortil. After taking the medicines for a month, my pain and bowel issues improved. However, now I feel a heaviness above my navel. My doctor repeated some tests: TSH: 1.71 CRP: 3.46 mg/L Hemoglobin: 11.3 g/dL ESR: 110 mm/hr PCV/Hematocrit: 35.5 percent RDW(CV): 15.2 The doctor prescribed the same medicines again and added Tab Meganeuron OD, but the heaviness around my navel persists.

My occult blood report is not detected, but there is blood in my stool in physical examination. Is it a cause of concern?
