<human>: Since yesterday I am passing whitish clay like stools. I started feeling unwell last Sunday: lost of appetite, bloating feeling and by Sunday night I had diarrhoea - for which I took Loperamide Hydrochloride. By Monday I had a terrible cold that has lasted all week, which made me think it is all caused by a nasty virus. But then on Friday night (yesterday) I got diarrhoea again, and took another pill of Loporamide. Since then, today is Saturday, my stools are whitish! I have abdominal pain and lots of wind. I am very concerned now, white stools are worrying. Thank you.
<bot>: HI. White stools are suggestive of obstructive jaundice. I would advise you to go for blood check-up including liver function tests and an Ultrasonography to determine the cause. Se your Doctor ASAP to get a proper diagnosis and treatment. You may need an opinion of Surgical Gastroenterologist. Be ready for Upper GI endoscopy/ ERCP/ MRI etc. Stop anything which contains oil/ butter. Stop operative also.
