Constipation is not as common as diarrhea with Covid-19 infection. Your symptom seems opposite with other patients. There is nothing to concern even if the dark/blackish color may imply occult blood in your stool which may happen in Covid-19 infection. Only concern do you have significant abdominal pain. Otherwise, eat light diet for a day or two, your normal bowel habit will return.
