What Causes Dark Colored Spots In Stool?

i'm a 16 year old female. i'm not pregnant or have any stomach aches/issues right now. however, i found a lot of dark colored/black oil spots floating in my stool today. is it just because of something i ate or do i have some internal problem? this has never happened before, and i ate about the same amount of fatty foods that i always do.

Hello! Welcome to HealthcareMagic!

First thing I didn't understand what you meant by dark colored oily spot but dark colored spots in stools in most cases is due to raise in body temperature. Other conditions also presents dark colored spots but considering your age and symptoms I think it's normal and just increase in body temperature. Drink more fluids take more green vegetables and fresh juices. Cut your fatty foods for a while and take care of your health.

Hope this clarifies your concerns. Thank you for contacting us.

Take care
