What Could It Mean To Have Abdominal Pain And Black Stool?

my husband said his stomach hurts pretty bad and he had black stool. his butt would also hurt while he was passing his stool. he says it's probably from the spicy food he ate the night before, but i'm wondering if that can be true or if it's not from him drinking beer and hard liquor a lot?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, yes it could be the diet taken that might be the cause of the symptoms he has else it may not be the anything in sense of disease, ask him to have light diet, drink more water, have some alkali diet like vegetable soup and it will be fine soon hope this information helps.
