Suggest Treatment For Blood In Stool
Hi, I had a black stool two days ago. Then I found blood in the stool yesterday. Now it s clear liquid, small amount and not that often. I am scared, because I had vaginal warts back in my 20 s I am now 57. Of course I will see a Doctor Monday. But need some help now. Thank you so much. AB

Hi
Unless you've taken PeptoBismol, black stool indicates an upper gastrointestinal bleed, either from gastritis or a peptic ulcer
You will need an upper endoscopy to find out exactly where the blood is coming from
