Hello doctor,
I am 33 years old this year. Currently, I go outside the mold but the yellow color (like the state of raw feces) has not yet fully digested the food (eating vegetables is also difficult to digest) and has a sour smell. In the water, it dissolves immediately. So the doctor asked me, what is the sign of yellow stools like raw feces with a sour smell? Thank you doctor.

Hello,
With the question “What is the sign of disease with yellow stools like raw feces with a sour smell? ”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Moldy and yellow stools are normal. Some insoluble fiber, when ingested, may not be fully digested, or if you eat a lot of fiber during the day, the stool will often be more porous and easily soluble in water. However, if the stool has a sour smell, there are signs of abnormal digestion. Therefore, you should see a gastroenterologist to find out the cause and have a specific treatment.
If you still have questions about yellow stools like raw stools with a sour smell, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
