Should I Be Worried About Yellow Foam In Stool?

Greetings, I have been experiencing yellow foam in/attached to my stools intermittently over the last six months or so. This is usually accompanied by copious amounts of wind. I sometimes experience IBS symptoms. Should I be worried by this? Thank you.
