Your management is not incorrect. Bleeding cam occur after APC and after any measure taken for bleeding any where in body. Plain Milk without. Added sugar etc is very releiving in gastritis inflammation. But only small quantity is needed to be taken at a time. Black stools if malena then it means upper gi bleed that is gastric bleed and if bleed is there it needs to be stopped. There is no Alternative for Endoscopy. If Endoscopy fails then surgery is needed.
