What causes Diarrhoea? - 2


People of all ages can get Diarrhoea and the average adult has a bout of acute Diarrhoea about four times a year. In the United States, each child will have had seven to 15 episodes of Diarrhoea by age 5.

What causes Diarrhoea?

Acute Diarrhoea is usually related to a bacterial, viral, or parasitic infection. Chronic Diarrhoea is usually related to functional disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome or inflammatory bowel disease.

A few of the more common causes of Diarrhoea include the following:

Bacterial infections. Several types of bacteria consumed through contaminated food or water can cause Diarrhoea. Common culprits include Campylobacter, Salmonella, Shigella, and Escherichia coli (E. coli).

Viral infections. Many viruses cause Diarrhoea, including rotavirus, Norwalk virus, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, and viral hepatitis.

Food intolerance. Some people are unable to digest food components such as artificial sweeteners and lactose-the sugar fauna in milk.

Parasites. Parasites can enter the body through food or water and settle in the digestive system. Parasites that cause Diarrhoea include Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica, and Cryptosporidium.

Reaction to medicines. Antibiotics, blood pressure medications, cancer drugs, and antacids containing magnesium can all cause Diarrhoea.

Intestinal diseases. Inflammatory bowel disease, colitis, Crohn's disease, and celiac disease often lead to Diarrhoea.

Functional bowel disorders. Diarrhoea can be a symptom of irritable bowel syndrome.

How to get cured of diarrhoea - 1


Diarrhoea is a common problem that usually resolves on its own. However, it could be dangerous if a person becomes dehydrated. Causes of Diarrhoea include viral, bacterial, parasitic infections, food intolerance, reactions to medicine, intestinal diseases, and functional bowel disorders. Treatment involves replacing lost fluid and electrolytes. Depending on the cause of the problem, a person might also need medication to stop the Diarrhoea or treat an infection. Children may need an oral rehydration solution to replace lost fluid and electrolytes. Call the doctor if the person with Diarrhoea has severe pain in the abdomen or rectum, a fever of 102 degrees or higher, blood in the stool, signs of dehydration, or Diarrhoea for more than 3 days.

To know more about Diarrhoea and its causes just take a look at here...

What is Diarrhoea?

Diarrhoea is loose, watery stools. A person with Diarrhoea typically passes stool more than three times a day. People with Diarrhoea may pass more than a quart of stool a day. Acute Diarrhoea is a common problem that usually lasts 1 or 2 days and goes away on its own without special treatment. Prolonged diarrhoea persisting for more than 2 days may be a sign of a more serious problem and poses the risk of dehydration. Chronic Diarrhoea may be a feature of a chronic disease.

Diarrhoea can cause dehydration, which means the body lacks enough fluid to function properly. Dehydration is particularly dangerous in children and older people, and it must be treated promptly to avoid serious health problems.
