Dark Stools & Abdominal Pain: Potential Causes & When to See a Doctor


Question
Iam haveing lower back pain. i belive to be kidney area. adominal pain massive burnning. naseua,extremly dark stool last couple days. any ideas. thank you allen  

Answer
dark stool suggests gastrointest bleeding, could also be iron supplements or pepto bismol.  With the abd symptoms, you have to have this checked out.  I don't see the low back pain as related, though.  You need a good primary doctor to put the pieces together.
