Can watermelon or cherry frużelina cause red stool?
Can watermelon cause red coloration of stool? Or cherry frużelina? Within two days I ate quite a lot of it. I would like to add that last year in December I had a colonoscopy, where everything was okay except that I was diagnosed with internal hemorrhoids. After taking medication, the symptoms stopped. Can it be a recurrence of hemorrhoids in this case?

Some foods can affect the color of the stool, especially often the example of beets or berries is given here. However, it is difficult for me to answer unequivocally what effect watermelon or cherry frużelina can have. In case of doubt, it is recommended to observe the stool at the next bowel movements. The persistence of unusual (e.g. red) stool coloration, despite the cessation of eating certain foods, should prompt you to contact your doctor. In the case of hemorrhoids, in addition to bleeding, there may also be specific ailments that, regardless of the color of the stool, require treatment: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/leki-na-hemoroidy
