10 Signs of Lactose Intolerance

Lactose Intolerance Sign #9: Painful Bowel Movements
Going to the toilet should be a fairly straightforward and easy experience. The food waste will usually pass through with relative ease, although sometimes that depends on what we eat. For people that are lactose intolerant, however, going to the toilet can be a very unpleasant experience.
In cases of lactose intolerance, passing stools can become more frequent, causing the anal canal to become sore, and the whole process, painful. Lactose intolerance will generally not cause blood in stools. Bloody stools could be more related to Crohn’s disease, a bacterial infection, among others. You should arrange to speak with a doctor to help you with these symptoms.
