Oddly shaped stool
Although you might deny it, we all look after we go at least once in a while. What you may not know is that ideally your poop should be a long, smooth, and solid shape. Although some variation is expected, if your poop never looks this way it could be a sign that your body is not being able to absorb the necessary nutrients before food waste is released. One thing to look out for is poop that is either small or stringy like a ribbon, which could be an indication that it was impeded on its way out.
So, don’t be shy and make a point to examine your poop in order to ensure that there is no reason for concern. If there is, make sure to make an appointment with your doctor to discuss it with them.
