No other symptoms with it, bowel movement is also good. I have seen this happening quite a while. I do sometimes suffer from constipation.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. When the blood comes into contact with stomach acid or digestive fluids, the red blood cells break down, resulting in a dark tar-like appearance. This black stool is known as melena and often has an extremely bad smell. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
