What Causes Persistent Diarrhea?
Question: I have been having a very runny bowel movement for about two weeks. No blood but a lot of liquid.
Brief Answer:
Could be due to irritable bowel syndrome. Further details needed.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. I would need to ask whether the stool was normal two weeks back (prior to this episode). I would also need to ask whether any stool test has been done. If not, I would insist you to get a routine stool microscopy done and to share the report.
You need to take ORS (oral rehydration solution) and plenty of fluids to drink (to replenish the salt and water lost). Avoid taking wheat related products and milk products for the time being.
I will wait for your response. Based on it I would guide you further. Let me know if I could help further.
Regards
