Vomiting Dark Black Liquid With Several Pieces Of Black Tissue In It. Took Tablets For Gastritis. Alcoholic.

I want to know what could be the cause of vomiting dark black liquid with several pieces of black tissue in it. I had gas pain for two days prior to vomiting, and took several over-the-counter pills for gas relief (exceeded the limit). As far as my medical history, I have dental problems and need several cavities filled along with some extractions. One of my teeth feel out a few days ago due to a severe cavity. I'm also an alcoholic and relapsed 6 days prior to vomiting. Is the nature of what I vomited indicate a more serious problem?

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

Black coloured vomitting can be because of presence of blood,bile or food mixed with bile acids in the vomit. it can occur due to presence of any ulcer which is causing you to vomit blood or any obstruction in the intestine which is making you vomit bile mixed with bile. I would suggest you to visit the Gasteroenterologist soon for an endoscopy.

For dental cavities visit the Dentist get the checkup done get the teeth to be restored, if any missing teeth can be restored.
Maintain a good oral hygiene.

Hope this helps out.

Regards....
