What is Diarrhea?
Diarrhea is a condition characterized by frequent, loose, or watery stools, often accompanied by urgency and discomfort. It is typically caused by infections, such as viral or bacterial gastroenteritis, food poisoning, or parasitic infestations. Diarrhea can also result from chronic conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Crohn's disease, or lactose intolerance, where the digestive system is unable to process certain foods or absorb nutrients effectively.Â
While acute diarrhea usually resolves on its own within a few days, it can lead to dehydration and electrolyte imbalances, especially if fluids are not replenished. In severe cases, diarrhea can be a symptom of more serious conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease or colorectal cancer. Managing diarrhea often involves staying hydrated, avoiding certain foods, and, if necessary, taking medications to control symptoms. If diarrhea persists for more than a few days or is accompanied by severe pain, fever, or blood in the stool, medical attention should be sought.
