drinks for loose motion - #15024
I am really worried about my stomach issues. Last week I had some really bad loose motion, like it came out of nowhere! I was just eating dinner when I started feeling cramps and then bam, in the bathroom I went. I thought it was just something I ate, but it continued for days. My doctor suggested I drink more fluids, especially something like an oral rehydration solution. But I am curious about other types of drinks for loose motion. I’ve heard that some people recommend coconut water or even ginger tea as effective drinks for loose motion. Would those really help? I'm avoiding dairy as someone mentioned it might make it worse!! I tried plain water but it’s getting boring and honestly I feel kinda weak and just want to recover quickly. I notice that when I don’t drink enough, the loose motion seems to get worse, so I guess hydration is key? Could you share what specific drinks for loose motion are best to stay hydrated? My friend said maybe some electrolyte drinks could help too. I just don’t want to risk making this worse! If I try those drinks for loose motion, how long does it usually take to feel better?
