What Does White Balls In Stool Indicate?

Hi my name is Stephanie I have been getting little white balls in my stool the last three days and I'm very worried. I have not been taking any medications and I'm not sure if I need to go see a doctor right away. My husband is getting papaya seeds with honey to eat, we read something that showed that may help... any suggestions? Thank you!
