What color is blood in stool?

You might see blood mixed with stool or blood at the end of passage of stool and even dark or black stools. Bright red blood usually indicates bleeding that's low in either colon, rectum or anus. Dark red or maroon blood indicates bleeding that's higher in the colon or small intestine. Dark stools indicate that bleeding from stomach most probably an ulcer. Sometimes, you may observe loose stools mixed with streaks of blood which is seen in infections like dysentry.

NOT TO WORRY CHANG IN DIET N LIFE STYLE CAN REVERT ALL. NO BAD HABITS, LIGHT DIET WITH LEAST OIL N SPICES, WALKING BRICK FOR 40 MIN FIVE DAYS IN A WEEK HELPS ALOT. PLENTY OF GLUCOSE, BUTTER MILK FRESH, FRESH CURD NIMBUPANI MOSAMBI JUICE WATERMELON ETC ARE VERY BENIFICIAL.

I've been having loose motions since last night and I'm not sure what kind of medicine I should take. I've already been drinking lemon water regularly. Could you help me figure out what else might help?
You can take Redotil 100mg (rececadotril). Make sure to stay hydrated by continuing to drink plenty of fluids like lemon water.

I'm having a bit of a worrying situation here. I had some serious gas troubles yesterday and took a Rantac 300mg tablet last night and again this morning. The gas issue seems sorted, but now I'm feeling a sharp pain under my right ribs whenever I take a deep breath. On top of that, my neck is hurting, and the pain under my ribs gets worse when I'm sitting or lying on my right side. What could be causing this?
It sounds like you may have irritation or inflammation in the area under your right ribs, possibly from acid reflux or a muscular issue. Since the pain worsens with breathing and movement, consider seeing a doctor to rule out any serious conditions like gallbladder or liver problems. Meanwhile, continue avoiding heavy meals, and take Rantac as prescribed.
