10 Liver Failure Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #9: Pale Stools
Our stools are usually a shade of brown. This shade can vary according to what we have been eating. Our stools can tell us a lot about our diet. In the past, doctors would have looked at stools as a way to gauge a person’s overall health. We still do today in a sense, albeit in more detail to look for specific illnesses.
If you are experiencing liver failure, your stools are likely to be paler than usual. Alternatively, they could be bloody or have a tar-like color and consistency. Abnormal stools are a sign that something is quite wrong, so you should make sure you find out what the problem is.
