How To Overcome The Problem With Passing Stools Accompanied With A Burning Feeling?

I have been having grainy stool and part with a rubber consistency. I have a hard time passing stool and it is quite thin. And quite greasy. It has been like this for 6 months plus. I also feel tired and burnt out all the time. Each time I go to the toliet I feel like I haven't completely emptied my stool.

Hi.
6 months is a long time to suffer and I wonder if you have not yet consulted a Doctor.
What you need is a complete course of an antibiotic and Metronidazole under a Doctor' prescription. This may solve your problems.
If not solved I would advise such a patient to go for routine blood test including those for sugar and thyroid and Stool tests .
You can have an additional enzyme preparations and pro-biotics in a capsule form or curds.
Try to find out which of the foods/ beverages enhance your problem and stop them altogether.
If still a problem , better to consult a Gastro Doctor and undergo colonoscopy or so if desired by him.
