Thanks for using Health care Magic.

Read your query.

Diarrhea is not associated with the root canal treatment.If he was on some antibiotics like amoxicillin,that can be the cause of the motions.Continuous for 4 weeks is usually not related to that.

I would advice you to visit a general physician and have a stool test done to rule out the cause of the loose motions.It can be treated based on the results.

Continue being hydrated well and have a nutritious diet.

Hope this was useful.
Thanks and regards.
