Loose motion rokne ke upay - #11974
I am struggling a lot with this loose motion issue! It started a few days ago after I ate something off at a street vendor. I thought it was just a little upset stomach, but now, it’s getting worse, and I can't leave the house without feeling the urgent need to go! I've tried basic home remedies, like ginger tea and staying hydrated, but the loose motion is becoming too frequent to manage. My friend recommended some loose motion rokne ke upay, but I'm not sure what's safe and effective. I read online about some medications, but honestly, I’m kinda scared of side effects. Like, how do I know which loose motion rokne ke upay to trust? And are there any specific dietary changes I should make while dealing with this? It’s so frustrating, I can’t concentrate on work, and I feel worn out. I don't have a fever or anything serious, which I guess is good, but this loose motion problem is really messing with my daily life! Please, have any of you faced this? What loose motion rokne ke upay actually worked for you? Would appreciate any advice!!

Doctors’ responses
Given you’ve been experiencing persistent loose motions after eating something questionable, it’s possible that your symptoms are due to a mild form of food poisoning or gastroenteritis. First and foremost, it’s good that you’re staying hydrated; dehydration is a major risk with diarrhea. Continue to drink water, and consider an oral rehydration solution (ORS) to replace lost electrolytes, which is more effective than plain water. As for dietary adjustments, try sticking to the BRAT diet — bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast, which are generally gentle and may help firm up stools. Avoid dairy, caffeine, spicy, and fatty foods as they can exacerbate your symptoms.
Over-the-counter medications like loperamide can help slow down intestinal movement, but they should be used with caution, especially if you suspect a bacterial infection, since they might trap bacteria further. Consult a healthcare professional before use to ensure it’s safe in your case. Since you’ve reported no fever or serious symptoms, these self-care measures should suffice. However, if you start experiencing severe stomach pain, blood in stools, or signs of dehydration, seek medical attention promptly.
If things don’t improve, it might be worth consulting with a doctor to rule out other causes and ensure no complications, particularly if your daily life is heavily affected. Meanwhile, rest and continue with bland foods. Antibiotics aren’t typically used unless a specific infectious cause is identified that would benefit from them. Remember, each person’s response to dietary changes and remedies can vary, so listening primarily to your body’s needs is essential.
