Diarrhea
Diarrhea is a condition in which your intestines don’t hold enough fluids, causing the whole process of digestion and bowel formation to be interrupted and become irregular. This can be caused by the infection of a virus which damages the lining of the small intestines; excessive intake of caffeinated and alcoholic beverages which stimulates frequent passage of stool thus staining the functions of the intestines and colon; a reaction to certain medicines; or as related to an intestinal disorder.
While diarrhea due to viral and bacterial infection passes after a couple of days by itself as the body fights the infection, diarrhea due to the other causes must be treated by avoiding the causes themselves – avoiding caffeine and alcohol and asking for alternative medicines without the side effects of this digestive problem. If diarrhea is due to another disorder, you must seek consultation with your doctor right away.
