What does it mean when you have diarrhea and it's really black?

My grandmother asked me what does it mean because she said she been pooping like that for 5 days now .. please don’t make fun of this question :(

Answer #1

When I first started having troubles with acid reflux the doc asked me if either of those were the case for me. He said it can be a sign of acid reflux, ulcers or several other stomach / intestinal disorders. I would HIGHLY recommend talking to a doctor!

Answer #2

Yea I heard it could be intestional or however you spell that bleeding..

Answer #3

Happens sometimes if you’ve been eating stuff with relatively high iron content, like liver or blood sausages.

Answer #4

yes the presence of blood in the gastrointestinal tract would make the stool black, what also can go with that condition is vomiting what appears to be a coffee ground like substance. definitely have her go to the doctor.
