                                    Brief Answer:
Can you send an image of this? For how long now?
Detailed Answer:
HI and thanks so much for this.
I am so sorry to hear about this hair in your stool and all the inconvenience this has caused you. I will suggest that you upload an image to me for review. Also, for how long has this been going on? How old are you? Have you ever had a colonoscopy? Also, have you ever had this same problem before.
This information will guide me as i continue to explore possible causes of this problem.
Look forward hearing from you!
