Brief Answer:
Contrast induced diarrhea? Infection?

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.

There are two possibilities.
1. Contrast induced diarrhea
2. Infection

Diarrhea induced by contrast is self limiting.
Drink enough fluids to remain well hydrated .

If it is due to infection, you may require a course of antibiotics. Get a stool analysis done to rule out infection.

Meanwhile take probiotics and drink enough fluids.
