Why is my 36-week pregnant diarrhea yellow and black?

i am a 19 year old female currently about to be 36 weeks pregnant and for the past week ive had horrible diarrhea i did have fevers but they stopped two days ago now only the diarrhea remains and its only gotten worse it seems. ive been to urget care and my obgyn but they haven’t given me the answers im looking for, waiting on some test to come back. my question is my diarrhea has been bright yellow and its been every other hour. since my fever went down ive started getting pain in my stomach everytime i get up and move mainly due to needing to go to the bathroom ( baby is completely fine says the doctors and i do feel her moving the same as before) when i go to use the bathroom its like i cannot get it out only little bits of the diarrhea and now today it is black. so far its like every ten or so minutes my stomach starts hurting and i need to go back but its so swollen and has started to bleed a little bit from so much diarrhea that it really hurts but yet barley any comes out should i try a stool softener?

Bright yellow diarrhea may indicate bile in your stool, while black diarrhea can suggest stomach bleeding. These symptoms could be due to infections or other medical issues that need attention. In my opinion, using a stool softener may not be ideal at this time. It's important to continue following your doctor's advice closely.

I have long term chronic constipation Weight loss depression anxiety and nervousness

Male | 24

You’re having a tough time with chronic constipation, weight loss, depression, anxiety, and nervousness. These symptoms may be related. Being constipated all the time can make you feel low and edgy, plus it may affect your weight. Ensure you have plenty of fluids such as water and eat foods that are high in fiber so that you can keep regular. Moreover, tell somebody how you feel because this might help reduce the feelings of anxiety or depression.

I feel vomit and stomachache when eating Bp low an shiver at night Weakness Loss appetite

Male | 21

You might have a stomach bug. Fe­eling nauseous, abdominal pain, low blood pressure­, night chills, fatigue, or lack of appetite indicate­ this. A virus likely causes it. Rest, stay hydrate­d, eat plain foods like toast or crackers to se­ttle your stomach. If no improvement in a fe­w days, seek medical he­lp.

i drank too luch alcohol but am fine now but am concerned

Male | 21

Alcohol can harm people and be sometimes dangerous because drinking too much will make your body spin. If you drank too much but are now okay, that's good news. But, sometimes too much drinking can cause things like a spinning mind, nausea, and feeling sick. Don't forget to drink water, take a break, and eat healthy foods to help your body recover.

I'm using Hyoscine butyibromide tablets. I want to ask if I can use Ibuprofen with it

Female | 23

The butyl bromide compound Hyoscine butyl bromide is good for treating stomach or intestinal problems, while Ibuprofen provides relief for pain and inflammation. If you need it, it is generally safe to take them together. Nonetheless, you should always consult with your pharmacist or doctor before associating any medicines together.

I have a symptomatic gallstone from previous 20 years and my gall bladder also distended but no symptoms is showing what should I do ...

Female | 52

It looks like you’ve had a gallstone for a while now, and it has made your gallbladder stretch. Normally, gallstones bring pain, nausea, and yellowing of your skin. If you don’t have any symptoms, you might not need immediate treatment. You should have a nutritious diet and visit your doctor for regular check-ups.
