  • I used this chart to help my hubby with his pooping problems. His poops were so tough at one point that they were causing him to tear his anus and bleed a lot. I bought him some probiotic shots (drink shots, not needles). Now his poops are the classic #4's, whereas they used to be giant number #3's and #2's.

    The probiotics are called "Bio Salud". They are cute little shot-sized bottles that have Spanish text before English text. My hubby started taking one every night, then moved to one every other night. They're cheap, too, at 88 cents per five-pack. I get them at Walmart, tucked away in the yogurt section.

    • Funny you mention this, because this is exactly why I found the chart. I was looking up blood in stool for my husband. He's currently at the hospital going through a load of tests.

      I told him prior he needs to work on his diet, I hope this is nothing serious. I'm going to check out the probiotics you mentioned. He didn't have the hard turds though so I'm worried still it may be more than diet but of course bettering the diet would always help no matter what this turns out to be.
