I have been suffering from gastric problems for the past four weeks and recently I have started noticing black stools. I am attaching my report here and would like to know what the issue might be.

Black stools may suggest bleeding in the stomach, possibly due to acidity or ulcers. If reports show anemia or infection, please see a gastroenterologist. To understand the cause of black stools and rule out any serious concerns, please do a stool test for occult blood and check your hemoglobin levels.
Dr. Hema Suggests...
Take a STOOL OCCULT BLOOD Test or Take a HB (Haemoglobin) Test Test

My wife has been suffering from constant stomach pain for the last 15 to 20 days. We visited a doctor and had a blood test that confirmed typhoid. She has been taking medication prescribed by the doctor for one week. After that, we did another blood test and stool examination as advised, and the doctor said the typhoid is cured, but there is still a stomach infection because there is some blood in the stool. She was given another three day course of medicine, but there has been no improvement. Please suggest what we should do next.

I am experiencing what may be a navel displacement, as I have pain in my belly and my digestive system is not functioning correctly. I went to the doctor, who gave me medicines and did some tests, but everything came back normal. Still, I feel pain and indigestion. I also notice a pulse just an inch above my belly button. What should I do?
