My father experienced severe stomach pain and he also suffers from constipation. Now his pain is almost gone. His blood reports of liver and kidney are normal but the stool occult blood report is positive. What does that mean?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A positive occult blood test means there is hidden blood in the stool, which can happen due to minor gut issues or other conditions. It is not always serious but should be followed up.
