A member asked:
I recently stopped taking acetaminophen on a daily basis about 2 weeks ago. now i am having blood in my stool (3x now) and back pain, what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See doctor: Tylenol (acetaminophen) should not cause blood in the stool. If it was being used for back pain, that may be why you are having back pain now. However, anytime there is blood in the stool, that needs to be evaluated by a doctor to rule out many possibilities with the colon, stomach, or esophagus.
