A member asked:
Hi i'm 19 years old, for the past two days my stools were either black or marbled with black and brown... what does it mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Black as black?: blood can appear in the stool as black if its digested blood...but we are talking not dark brown but BLACK... you should let your physician know if this has been accompanied by other symptoms- like abdominal pain
