A member asked:

Ive been having little black things that float appear with my stool during a bowel movement. i havent really ate anything darn colored that could cause this, and the smell of the stool was foul. smelled acidic almost?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I consider foul smelling stool nondiagnostic. Black specks in bowel movements, if not caused by dark foods you ate, can be remnants of old blood from high in the gastrointestinal tract like the stomach or duodenum. Did you have any upper abdominal distress within the past few days? If black specks in your stools continue, your MD can do a simple test on your stool to determine if occult blood is
