What Causes Orange Colored Anal Discharge?

My son had a bowel movement that was foul smelling and there was orange oil at the top of the water (5 pools with the largest being the size of a dime). When I wiped him, It took four wipes for all of the oil to be cleaned and it was almost fluorescent orange. There was no stool while wiping - just the oil. He didn t have any fish products. What might cause this? Should I be concerned?
