I have had a tiny bit of blood in my stool every once in a while.today my stool was darker brown than usual.what does this mean? i am on amoxicillin.

Probably nothing : Most likely hemorrhoidal bleeding. Many things can change the color of stool - most being benign. If persistent or if you have other symptoms i would suggest being evaluated.
