Suggest Medications For Diarrhea With Foul Smelling Stools

I am I am a 60 yo white female. Beginning in June, I have had very frequent and loose stool. No real pain but having to go right after eating- say 20 minutes. No blood or black stools but very foul smelling and going 6-10 times per day. Trying real hard to keep everything real clean but anus is sore. Gassy. Doesn t seem to matter what I eat. Starting to interfere with work and pretty inconvenient. Always very regular prior to June.
