What Does Greenish Colored Loose Stools Indicate?

Hi, Welcome to HCM. Eating spinach might cause slightly greenish stools but as you said you had a green colored stool loose motions since 8-9 months. It can occur in various conditions like excess unprocessed bile (which is to be digested by certain enzymes) or iron supplements,or iron rich diet,celiac disease or Protozoa infestation etc You need to see physician and get your stool R/M examination done. It is quite possible to get cured from constipation or bleeding in stool because it might be due to fissure which might get healed by itself without medications. Continue to take healthy foods with high vegetables which will improve our overall health. Take anti-anxiety drug to have adequate sleep in night time but you will need prescription from some local doctor or GP for that. Seek help from urologist for your prostate issue and take appropriate medications for it. For acidity,you can take antacids like h2 blockers (ranitidine) or proton pump inhibitors (pantoprazole or rabeprazole) will help to reduce excess acid production in stomach. You can also take digene gel or liquid or ulcero-protective agents like sucralfate or bismuth subsallicylate to reduce the burning sensation. Apart from medications you should, 1) eat plain foods like boiled rice and green leafy vegetables without adding spices or oil. It will help to neutriluze digestive acids and also they are easily digestible means there will be no need of extra stomach acid. 2) avoid oily,spicy and fast foods 3) avoid eating full stomach at a time rather have small meals frequently. 4) drink coconut water will help to reduce burning. 5) eat lots of fruits like banana and watermelon. Hope all your questions are answered. Regards,
