A member asked:
If there's a dark red spot on his stomach, is it an ulcer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ulcer: Ulcers are not always dark in color. They often have a white coating on them. If there is a dark spot on the base of an ulcer at endoscopy, it may represent a blood vessel or clot. Your gastroenterologist can explain more. Good luck.
