Initial stool is hard
My initial stool (just small portion) is very hard while rest of the stool is fine every day. I am taking Pulvolax (fibre), drinking 3.5-4 litres of water, eating fruits, doing exercise everyday, no fast food. I have no other digestion problem. Why is that small portion of initial stool very hard everyday? What's the permanent solution?
