A member asked:

I have a severe uti currently, but i am taking medication prescribed to me. and i am drinking a lot of cranberry juice my stool has been red and i went to the bathroom at least three or four times today. should i be concerned?

Lots of cranberry juice could be the cause of the red stools. Your physician can do a simple test of your stool in the office which detects blood. If you feel weak or if red stools continue, get the stool tested or go to the hospital emergency room for prompt evaluation and testing.
