Are Black Specs In Stools Suggestive Of Parasites?
I have black sesame seed like things in my poo. My poo comes out soft and is a light brown. I am also on my period if that may be a factor. My poo comes out like a fart but isn t diarrhea but a close second. I had potatoes but they were boiled through. I live in Canada and I haven t been anywhere tropical. I had kiwis thinking those might be it but I don t know. Do I have a parasite
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, it may not be anything what you have noticed but it could be some nonspecific one if it needs to be clear the doubt then better to get done the stool examination hope this information helps.
