What Is The Cause Of White Skin When I Have A Bowel Movement?
I have had white/cream colored skin like gloves when I have a bowel movement. Most of the time, I pass a lot of gas and then this glove is found in the toilet unaccompanied by any stool. It is just these whitish gloves, sometimes a hint of blood on them. What is this?!

Hello,
As per my surgical experience, the white tissue type thing found in the toilet unaccompanied by any stool is usually undigested fiber content of the diet in most of the cases.
However, it would be worth to take one stool routine microscopy examination to rule out possible worm infestation of the gut.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
