Is this something to worry about? Dark brown/black stool? - dark brown almost black stool
So yesterday I woke up with abdominal pain and sometimes thought that I would discover, it was only a little gas.
My first guess was probably eaten too much the night before or some dairy products. Since I am lactose intolerant, so I was a little gas, when I milk.
Well, today I finally had to go, and it goes without saying that my chair was a wet sidewalk, but what worries me as I wash myself, I saw that there is a dark, almost black, brown.
A bit like pieces of Oreo cookies in the bottom of the cup of milk to wet many of them. heh, sorry TMI right there.
But if there is something to be feared. I just had a bowel movement so far in 2 days and that was all.
I've heard that the blood of the cause of black stools, but also heard that the colors of food coloring has specific as dark red stools.
Kimchi fried rice I had yesterday and it was red, but that's probably the chili powder into the law of the kimchi?
Help?

I looked for you on the website of the Mayo Clinic. Hope this helps.

Stool comes in a variety of colors. All shades of brown and green, also regarded as normal. It is rare that the stool color indicate a potentially serious intestinal condition.
Stool color is generally by what you eat affects the amount of bile - a yellow-green fluid that digests fats - in the feces. As bile pigments travel through the digestive tract, which are chemically altered by enzymes - Change of pigments from green to brown.
Ask your doctor if you are concerned about the color of the chairs. If your chair is red or black - which may indicate the presence of blood - call a doctor immediately.
