Hello drtimes3, There is not perfect stool size...Most individuals will pass 250g of stool in a 24hr period..No illness has been directly related to the size of stool..However, in rare cases, large stools can be indicative of malabsorption disorders..In a child of this age, this would be something to consider...This can also cause irritation of the sigmoid colon and also increases chances for hemorrhoids....My advise would be to mention this to his physician...He or she may opt to perform some Lab Studies to rule out certain disorders...I hope this was abit helpful...Please, post again if you have further questions or concerns..Please, keep us posted on your findings..Good Luck to you and your son and God Bless.
