My son turns 8 tomorrow. He occasionally will get in a hurry when using the restroom and not flush the toilet. Yesterday, he used the bathroom in my master toilet sometime after I left for work. When I went in there last night, there was urine and a brown large stool. The water around the stool had a reddish color. To the left and right of the stool. The rest of the water in the bowl was yellow urine color. The red freaked me out and I am very concerned. After sitting for maybe 10 hours, would the bile in the stool potentially mix with the urine and cause some of the water around the stool to turn red? I'm sorry this is gross. But I'm very worried something is wrong.

It does not appear that your son is having any health issues causing the reddish color in the toilet...

I feel a little pain in my right upper chest. It started yesterday and I can feel it time to time. What type of pain is it, and is it related to heart problems or something else?

I accidentally drank coffee with dead fruit flies in it, and I'm concerned because the apartment was recently sprayed for roaches, which might have attracted the flies to the poison. Should I be worried about potential health risks?
