Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I don t remember since when but I started noticing my stools turned dark from red wine taken the night before. At the same time, I usually feel constipation along with dark stool. I checked by switching to white wine or beer (no red wine at all) then the next day the stool color turn to normal (brown or yellow). I love red wine. What can I do about it? Thanks
Absolutely nothing. If you are at an age where screening colonoscopies are being offered to you, I suggest you get one to be sure it is nothing sinister.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Anders Mark Christensen, General Surgeon
