See your doctor: Since you may have had bleeding in your intestine, it would be prudent to consult your doctor. The issue may be beyond self-diagnosis and self-treatment.

See doctor: You were advised to see your doctor to ascertain the cause of black stools and to rule out intestinal bleed in particular. Even though your stool is not black now, you should still see a doctor.
