Hi,
Passing the stool five to six times in day could be due to infection and it can be mix type of infection most probably it can be protozoa and bacteria might be the cause.
If I would be doctor of this case then I would try to treat this case with Ofloxacin with Tinidazole twice in a day, it is advisable to take care in diet try to avoid the heavy food, spicy food.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
