What Cause Green Colored Stool?
Question: My husband never eats vegetables (exception corn and potatoes) and has been pooping green. We don't know what to think of this. Any idea?
Brief Answer:
gall bladder problem
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM,
Bile is stored in the gallbladder and it is green. Green stools could be due to a problem with the gallbladder. If he is having any vomiting or abdominal pain then he should see a doctor to get his gallbladder checked right away.
If he is not having any other symptoms then hopefully this will clear up in a few days. If it does not then he should see his doctor for a stool study evaluation and exam.
Regards,
Dr. Robinson
