Will White Rice Help With Runny Stools ?

I am having very black tarry like, runny stools . I have diagnosis of IBS . My friend told me I should eat white rice now to help stools fromm being so runny. I think the black color is from taking 800 mgs last night of NASID(IBPROPEN) BUT I DIDN T HAVE TYLENOL ON HAND. DO YOU AGREE I COULD BENEFIT FROM THE RICE NOW TO HELP WITH RUNNY STOOLS?

I disagree that rice will solve your problem.

You have an acute peptic ulcer disease which is bleeding now. It needs to be sincerely addressed. I suggest you better go on Anti ulcer medication for at least a month with the help of your local doctor.

Ibuprofen is the clear culprit and you should avoid all the NSAIDs in future.

Regards.
