Suggest Remedy For Quesy Stomach And Pain
Question: yes I've had a bowel movement & I thought I ate somthing that made my stomach feel quesy & my bowel is dardk purple. I don't have any pain. I remember eating some nuts that had cayenne in them so I thought that may be causeing the purple coolor.
Brief Answer:
Pink stool is likely blood, food related
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Bowel habits are a challenge and once in a while color change is no worries. Any thing close to red or pink is likely blood in stools.
As you said you ate nuts with cenneye peppers in it. So that probably explains it. Just avoid it in future, take fibrous diet, and use soft meal plans. One episode is not worrisome. But if it persists for more than three days then it will need some consultation and detailed clinical correlation to assess the damage here but i am sure it wont come to that.
I hope ot hleps. take good care of yoursefl and dont forget to close the discussion please.
may the odds be ever in your favour.
