Hepatitis C is a viral infection of the liver that can be acute (short and severe) or chronic (over a long time). The infection is transmitted by blood contact, including blood found on needles, tattooing equipment, or a razor or toothbrush that was used by an infected person. Hepatitis C may have several symptoms, two of which relate to the appearance and texture of your stool.
Disease Awareness
It is possible to have hepatitis C for years before it is noticed or diagnosed, because symptoms are not always present.
Symptoms
A person infected with hepatitis C may experience two noticeable changes in bowel movements: diarrhea and very pale-colored stool.
