Answer #1

Agreed with kdsmm, get it checked out by a doctor. Black stool usually indicates that there is blood in your stool.

Answer #2

Black stool that looks like it has coffee grounds in it or has the consistency of wet coffee grounds is a sign of intestinal bleeding, and requires immediate medical treatment. Pain in the abdomen followed by a change to black stool should be brought up to your physician ASAP!
