Foam in stool
Hello doctor, I have been taking treatment for fistula in ano from november 2020..Took augmentin and metrogyl tablets along with stool softners for almost 1 month in that my stomach got upset and started getting foamy stools. I had undergone fistulectomy surgery on Jan 8th 2020 .. Now my wound got healed completely and i have stopped taking medicines and stool softners from past two months. Even now daily morning i am getting soft foamy stools(attached image) . No matter what i eat. I have made many diet changes but no result. What might be the reason.. please help
