What's going on with the bowel movement strips?


Healing hearts, one patient at a time.
Fecal thin strips may be related to poor diet, abnormal intestinal motility, intestinal diseases, anal abnormalities and other factors. 1. Poor diet If the fiber content in the diet is insufficient or the intake of water is too small, it will lead to dry stools and may appear thin strips when discharged. 2. Abnormal intestinal motility may lead to stool staying in the intestine for too long, and excessive absorption of water to form thin strips. 3. Intestinal diseases such as irritable bowel syndrome, enteritis, intestinal polyps, etc., can lead to intestinal stricture and affect the shape of stool. 4. Anal abnormalities such as anal stricture, hemorrhoids, perianal abscess, etc., may also affect the smooth discharge of stool, making it thin strips.
