HI
Thank for asking to HCM
No need to worry just forget the idea of cancer this is not the sign of cancer in any way, if you go on thinking about this will create more pain to you, in fact such frequency of stool is normal even the consistency also said to be normal every thing which is being described by you is normal, but for your satisfaction you can have lyophilized bacillus sachet this will help you in your stool, have nice day.
I find this answer helpful
