Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Black stool has so many reasons.
• Are you taking iron tablets?
• Any history of long-term (chronic) hepatitis B and C infection?
Get your blood CP, LFTs, stool re, and stool test for occult blood to be done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Rehana Kousar
