What Causes Passing Black Stool And Abdominal Cramps In A 2 Year Old?
My daughter in 2 years old and she is having black colored stool and she has been having stomach cramps for a few day now and i just now noticed the black colored stool. I just was wondering if i should be concerned and take her to the hospital or what it would be to why she is having this?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if this is the black color of stool then it could be due to presence of blood if it is associated with abdomen pain, second it may be due to diet containing more iron, stool need to be sent for examination and better to see the pediatrician hope this information helps.
