What Causes Stomach Pain And Red Colored Stools?
Hi, My name is Jordon. I m a 19 year old female. I ve been having a constant stomach ache and on and off sharp pains for about a week now. Last week I had black poop for 5 or 6 days. Now it s reddish and occasionally normal. I ve tried putting it off but I m kind-of concerned now. I tried searching online but I have no idea what it is. Hear and there I have to stop and take a deep breath because I feel like I don t get enough air. If you could help me that would be great. Thanks so much.

Hi,
Your symptoms seem to be related to a stomach ulcer. An endoscopy is needed to confirm the diagnosis. Meanwhile, I recommend to use PPI medication to low the acidity in the stomach such as Prilosec. I also recommend using Buscopan three times a day for the stomach pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
