The Daily Chemist's suggestions on Diarrhoea

BRACKNELL, U.K. - Aug. 22, 2022 - PRLog -- Diarrhea is loose, watery, and possibly more frequent bowel movements. It may be present alone or be associated with other symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, or weight loss. Diarrhea can have many causes, but bowel infections (gastroenteritis) are the most common. Viruses, bacteria, or parasites can cause gastroenteritis. These infections can sometimes be contracted when traveling abroad, particularly in poor sanitation areas.

The condition is known as travelers' diarrhea. There are many causes of diarrhea, including anxiety, food allergy, medication, and long-term conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Keeping high standards of hygiene is essential to preventing diarrheal infections.

In most cases of diarrhea, you won't need to see your doctor for about a week. If your GP suspects an underlying health condition is causing your diarrhea, they may suggest you have some blood tests. A GP may refer you to a hospital for further investigation if you have persistent diarrhea and the cause is not found by them.
