black poop?
Okay about 4 months ago I started having blood when I wiped after a bowl movment. I went to the dr and they gave me a anti acid pill while it hasnt happend in about two months but the last two times i went to the bathroom there as been black dark brown shots the size of a coffee bean in my poop. My stumch hurts often but I disregard it mpst of the time. Im only 22 but i dont knw what I should do or if I should even be conserned. What do you all think?
It could be serious or it could be something not too bad. The only way to know is to see a doctor and get some testing done.
do you think it could be serious? With the blood thing before and now this what do you think.
Welcome to the gastroenterology community! I would recommend seeing a gastroenterologist about this. Black stools can indicate bleeding in the upper part of the digestive system. You should probably have a colonoscopy and endoscopy to investigate this. Good luck.
