Suggest Treatment For Loose Stools?

Hi, I just came to China. I've been here for about 2 weeks. Since I arrived I have made a strong effort with the help of my girlfriend that lives here to eat as well as I can knowing the unreliability of the food they produce here. I'm not sure if this is the issue but since I arrived my stool has become more and more of a liquid. Previously it was nothing serious, it seemed more remnant of something like eating too much spicy food back home but recently as in just this day all my poos have been pure liquid and very frequent. I don't really feel nausea or stomach pains. I just seem to have to poo a lot and every time its all very watery. What is it and what can i do? Are there any natural way of dealing with this without going to a hospital?

Hi WelcomtoHCM
As you are caught in the rigmrol of atmospheric change from upset problem is not to be ruled out .
But you shold take care of the intake of lots of fluids and refill the defeciency of electrolytes you suffer by frequent poos

include weak tea with a little sugar, sports drinks such as Gatorade, flat soda pop (decaffeinated flavors such as ginger ale are best), and fruit juices .
Drink plenty of fluids. Consume two quarts (eight cups) of fluids a day, three quarts (12 cups) if you're running a fever. Plain water lacks electrolytes
yoghurt can help produce lactic acid in your intestines, which can kill off the nasty bacteria and get you feeling better, faster.

Start semi liquid porridge when you recover .
you can take banana and curd , curd and thinly cooked rice for 2-3 days

Thats all you have to do.

And if required dont shirk from going to doc for guidance

hope this helps solve your query . Take care all the best

Don't hesitate to come back if have any further query

many watery motions means diarrhea.Either it could be due to excess of rich food (proteins and fats) in amounts and quantity or it is some intolerance.A course of Flagyl 400mg thrice a day and some nutrolin-B caps once a day and switching to lighter meals may help. Avoid heavy fat diet and substitute with fruits and vegetables.
