I have had a darker brown stool and i had a little red on my toilet paper and and i have eaten tomatoes could it be something else?

Could possibly: Be blood. Have you ever been constipated and gotten hemorrhoids? When they belled it is usually on the toilet paper. Stop eating tomatoes syndrome see if it stops. If it's blood you should see the doc!
