Could Blackened Stools Be Due To Chocolate Ice Cream?
I have eaten dark chocolate ice cream containing chocolate covered cashew nuts and caramel. I rarely eat chocolate ice cream, but now I have blackened stool (no bad odor). Is it because of the dark chocolate ice cream with choco covered cashew nuts and caramel?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history eating dark chocolate ice cream containing chocolate covered cashew nuts and caramel.
Now you have blackened stools without bad odor.
It will be difficult to say what exactly caused this. It is most probably the altered blood and can be confirmed by tests of occult blood i the stool and if present to get upper GI and colonoscopy.
Get hemorrhoids operated and take care of there parts of life. No stress or anxiety .
