Diarrhoea - Introduction

Diarrhoea Menu

Definition:

It is defined as an increase in frequency of bowel motions, or increased stool liquidity, or sometimes a sense of faecal urgency. The person with diarrhea has watery or loose stool more than three times a day.

Diarrhea is a debilitating condition that can significantly affect quality of life. Diarrhoea is the passing of increased amounts (more than 300g in 24 hours) of loose stools.

Diarrhoea involves frequent and loose motions. The main cause of diarrhoea is the inflammation of the large intestine (the intestine where all the waste material of the body is collected). The major cause, in the context that we are referring to, is infection, but there are various other rarer causes which occasionally occur.

Usually, most of the people get affected with diarrhoea at some or the other time of their life, and if not then will suffer from it in future, as it is a very common infection. Diarrhoea may also be accompanied with stomach pains, feeling sick and vomiting.
