Suggest Treatment For Diarrhea With Red Blood

Ive had dairrhea for two months that is accompanied by a fairly large quantity of bright red blood. In the last four days the blood has turned almost black. I have abdominla pain as well as pain in my lower back. I am a 38 yar old male if it matters. Also might note that along with the darkened stool has been bowel movements every half an hour a third of which appear to be blood clots. Travis
