Health advice on Blood in stools
I have been recently taking natural herbal medicnes to kill my stomach worms. I think the medicine is working but my stools now have blood in them. Is this a normal sign of the worms dying or does it mean something bad?

Blood in your stool is rarely "normal." It is likely the herbal antihelmenthic or parasitic preparation has irritated the lining of the small intestine and/or colon (which may detach the parasites) and caused bleeding. Depending upon the course of treatment, please consult a health care practitioner if the blood does not go away, once you have stopped the herbal treatment.
