HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Prolonged diarrhea can be due to different possible causes such as:(1) irritable bowel syndrome
(2)inflammatory bowel disease- this refers to crohns disease and ulcerative colitis
(3)infections
(4)endocrine disorders such as hyperthyroidism (increased levels of the thyroid hormone)
(5)food allergies or sensitivity to some foods
(6)side effect of medications
To determine the exact cause, however, you would need assessment by a doctor because physical examination and investigations would be needed.
I hope this helps
