Is it normal to poop 5 times a day?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
There is no normal bowel movement. It can range from three times a day to three times a week. However, your normal pattern may be different from these numbers. If you have always been having five bowel movements daily then it is normal pattern for you. But, if this is a new change along with change is stool consistency then you might be having any intestinal infection or disease for which you need to consult a doctor.

View allI've noticed something strange happening whenever I use the toilet. After I pass stool, the water in the toilet quickly turns yellow, even though my stool itself isn't yellow. On top of that, I've been dealing with some pain in my right abdomen for the past few days. I got a sonography done, and everything looked normal according to the reports. Could you help me understand what's going on?
The changes in the toilet water color and right abdominal pain are not typical symptoms and could indicate a deeper issue related to bile production, liver function, or malabsorption. Even though your sonography was normal, it's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation, especially if symptoms persist. Keep track of any other associated symptoms, such as nausea, fever, changes in stool consistency, or appetite loss, and report them to your doctor.

I'm 28 and have gallbladder stones but don't feel much pain. I was considering surgery but wondering if medicines can dissolve them permanently. Since I'm not in much discomfort, is surgery still the best option for me?
