Bowel movements can smell particularly bad after a colonoscopy due to the preparation process, which often involves a clear liquid diet and the use of laxatives to cleanse the intestines. This can alter the gut microbiota and lead to changes in the composition of the stool. Additionally, the presence of residual cleansing agents and the rapid transit of material through the intestines can contribute to stronger odors. Finally, the reintroduction of solid foods afterward may also lead to more pronounced smells as the digestive system readjusts.

Could bowel movements that smell like moth balls and facial breakouts that appear like ringworm and take a long time to go away be linked?

Interesting that you ask this. I have searched for years to answers about why my bowel movements smell like mothballs. I had a lot of crazy symptoms going on and finally ended up testing positive for Lyme Disease. I always wondered if there was a relation between the Lyme Disease and this smell. One thing I have found in my research is that sinus issues are a possible culprit for a moth ball smell, whether it be in your digestive tract or in your breath. I definitely found the Lyme has given me some horrible sinus issues, so it could very well be that.
