Diarrhea is the state of having at least three loose or liquid bowel movements per day and it can result in dehydration due to fluid loss as it lasts for some days. Loss of the normal stretchiness of the skin and changes in personality is the beginning of signs and symptoms of diarrhea. Symptoms may also include decreased urination, loss of skin color, a fast heart rate, and a decrease in responsiveness as it becomes more severe. Loose but non watery stools in babies who are breastfed, however, may be normal. The most common cause is an infection of the intestines due to a virus, bacteria, or parasite, a condition known as gastroenteritis. These infections are often acquired from food or water that has been contaminated by stool, or directly from another person who is infected.
Diarrhea may be divided into three types:
• Short duration watery diarrhea
• Short duration bloody diarrhea
• Persistent diarrhea (i.e., lasts for more than two weeks)
The short duration watery diarrhea may be due to an infection by cholera. If blood is present it is also known as dysentery. A number of non-infectious causes may also result in diarrhea including: hyperthyroidism, lactose intolerance, inflammatory bowel disease, a number of medications, and irritable bowel syndrome among other. In most cases stool cultures are not required to confirm the exact cause.
If you have a mild case of diarrhea, you can just let it run its course, or you can treat it with an over-the-counter medicine. Common brand names include Pepto-Bismol, Imodium A-D, and Kaopectate, which are available as liquids or tablets.
In addition, you should drink at least six 8-ounce glasses of fluid per day. Choose fruit juice without pulp, broth, or soda (without caffeine). Chicken broth (without the fat), tea with honey, and sports drinks are also good choices. Instead of drinking liquids with your meals, drink liquids between meals. Drink small amounts of fluids frequently.
