What Does Lump In Stool Indicate?

I found a lump, the size of a large garlic clove in my stool. It was floating telling me it probably was not heavy. I have been having stomach pain before bowel movement and suffering from a cold the last few days . What could that white lump be? It have not eaten anything resembling that at all.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, most probably it could be food particle and as matter of fact for better confirmation gross examination or observation is the only way, second thought it could be tape worm but again for conformation the stool need to be sent for lab examination hope this information helps.
