Pseudomonas

Pseudomonas in stool can indicate an infection or overgrowth in the gastrointestinal tract. While not a common gut pathogen, Pseudomonas aeruginosa can cause problems, particularly in immunocompromised individuals. Its presence in stool may signal an imbalance in gut flora or a more serious underlying condition, especially when accompanied by gastrointestinal symptoms.
