Dark color poop

2022-05-29 07:15:11
Hello Doctors, I experience constipation on and off. Few weeks it's all normal every morning and suddenly for a few days I don't well or don't poop at all. But in last 7 days it's more prominent with black color poop and today I see white substance around it. Is it normal? Shall I laxative? Is it too alarming to go see a doctor?

Hello sir, How long u are constipating ? Do you see any blood in faeces? Color of faeces can change with food you eat..are you currently using any iron supplement?
Next Steps
long term constipation can end up in piles ( hemmoroids) or fissure . you need to take fibre rich diet and hydrating fluids .
