Reason For Discomfort In Bowels?

I have been constipated for last week. Finally got relief today but originally was very dark and watery. The second time going, I have very dark black/green poop. It seems to be sticking together as it comes
Out very stringy but blobs up inside the toilet.

Hello,

I really appreciate your concern, such consistency of stool could be due to an infection and it could be protozoa infection. In my opinion, such condition needs to be treated with tab Metronidazole, drink more water, and have more fiber-containing diet.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Akhtarhusain
