What Causes Diarrhea Immediately After A Meal?

the last month or so not long after i have eaten I have to go to the bathroom suddenly (loose bowel movement) and can not stop it from coming out before I can get to a bathroom. My stomach does not hurt or cramp any time during this....this has happened to me 3 or 4 times over the last 4 to 6 weeks....

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear
Understand your concern
Your symptoms could be due to
Irritable bowel syndrome, Celiac disease
Inflammatory bowel disease: associated with blood in stool
Microscopic colitis and infection of gastrointestinal tract

I advice to to consult the Gastroenterologist for better evaluation and undergo following investigation:
Stool microscopy and culture
Blood tests: Full blood examination, LFT, ESR, and
serological testing for coeliac disease
Abdominal ultrasound, endoscopy to rule out the ulcer and colonoscopy.
Hydrogen breath testing to rule out malabsorption.
Doctor will give following advises:
Avoid spicy diet , take small frequent meal rather than large meal.
Take diet like banana, rice, toast, buttermilk, curd.
Drink plenty of water and ORS solution
Anti diarrheal: loperamide.
Drug like fluoxentine and clozapine
Sporolac sachet
Avoid stress and do regualr exercise like walking and yoga.
Hope this may help you
