What Does Yellow String In Stool Of A Toddler Mean?

Hi, my name is Jennifer and my 23 month old daughter pooped in the potty and there was yellow string or rope like poop. She had pretty sold poop all week now, except for today. Its been very runny but there s sold matter as well. Should I be worried? BTW this is BS that I ve gotta pay money for an answer to a question when I could just keep looking or try WEBMD.

thanks for your question. if almost all daily stools are normal and there no complaints of fever , vomitting then just wait and watch fof next abnormal stools. if it continues to be the same start on rinifol z or lactobacillus sachet with zinc. use oral rehydration powder as and when stools are watery.
if next stools are normal then its alright and not significant to worry about.
