Question : Hi, past few months stool has changed to thinner than normal. Go every morning. When I get up in the morning it's like gravity where if I don't make it to the bathroom I would have an accident. Then no other issues until the same scenario the next day. I did have a colonoscopy where I was told no issues found but dr could not complete as he said colon was twisted and to come back in 1 year. Also when I sit in a specific position on a stool or seat there is discomfort but when touched there is no pain
Brief Answer:
HAs your diet changed?
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have reviewed this information fully and because you had a colonoscopy less than a year, there is no major reason to be worried. I thing the issue might be related to dietary changes which require you being used to the new “normal routine” and not feel embarrassed. I will not be alarmed and suggest you wait quietly up to the next program colonoscopy for complete review of the bowels. Thin stool is often related to a problem in the terminal part of the colon which is certainly n0t where doctors have issues with twisting. I believe this area was well examined and I do not anticipate any specific lesion that was missed.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

Thank you.. What about the issue with sitting ehere certain pressure points cause discomfort?
Brief Answer:
Use more comfortable surfaces!
Detailed Answer:
HI,
When weight is not well distributed in a seated position, we will feel pains at a particular area with increased weight bearing. It in no way means that there is a lesion at that area. I will suggest that you try using more comfortable surfaces when you sit.
Keep me posted! I wish you well.
