A member asked:
Been using scheriproct 1 time a day for 5 days now and have noticed my stool smells very foul and has black bits in it with mucus on top. is it ulcer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Scheriproct: Are you treating hemorrhoids? Fissure? Perianal dermatitis? Scheriproct shouldn't affect stools very much, but mucus can indicate some rectal inflammation(proctitis). Black pigment may be from blood high up in the gi tract(stomach,duodenum), from iron supplements or medication containing bismuth. See a proctologist for diagnosis and treatment.
