Diarrhoea

Diarrhoea is passing loose or more frequent stools than normal.

When you have diarrhoea, your bowel movements (or stools) are loose and watery. It’s common and usually not serious.

Many people get diarrhoea a few times a year. It normally lasts 2 to 3 days. Some people get it more often. It could be because they have irritable bowel syndrome or other conditions.

Types of diarrhoea

• Acute diarrhoea: The most common, acute diarrhoea is loose watery diarrhoea that lasts one to two days. This type doesn’t need treatment and it usually goes away after a few days.
• Persistent diarrhoea: This type of diarrhoea generally persists for several weeks – two to four weeks
• Chronic diarrhoea: Diarrhoea that lasts for more than four weeks or comes and goes regularly over a long period of time is called chronic diarrhoea.

Symptoms of Diarrhoea

You may have:

• Bloating in your belly
• Cramps
• Thin or loose stools
• Watery stools
• An urgent feeling that you need to have a bowel movement
• Nausea and throwing up
