Dear sir,
Thank you for posting your query on XXXXXXX
Well there can be many reasons for dark green stools but since you are having stomachache also it needs to be evaluated First and foremost Salmonella infection needs to be ruled out .
I would advise you to see a gastroenterologist get your , LFT , Stool R/M , Stool c/s and probably a USG abdomen will be required. Jaundice also needs to be ruled out . Kindly seek medical help soon so that the cause could be find at earliest and treated accordingly.
Wish you a good health.
Take care.
