What are Black Stools?
Black stools are when the feces of a person are dark and black, they can indicate bleeding or other injuries in the gastrointestinal tract. But black stools may also come out because of consuming dark-colored food such as blueberries, dark chocolate cookies, black licorice and more. Even still, it is best to tell a doctor as soon as this irregularity is spotted to rule out serious medical conditions.
Treatment
If it is serious, black stools primarily indicate bleeding so the doctor may prescribe acid-reducing medication to treat bleeding ulcers but treatment depends on what exactly is causing the black stools.
