What : What you describe is worrisome. If you have black, tary (sticky) bowels that have a foul smell, this could be due to gastrointestinal beleeding. Please contact your doctor today. Your doctor will tell you if he or she can see you quickly or if you should go to the emergency room. If you are feeling, dizzy, faint or particularly weak, then you should consider going to the emergency room now. Take care.
