i'm having loose motion - #18340
I am dealing with this really annoying issue where I'm having loose motion like, nonstop for the last three days. It started after I tried this street food, which I thought was fine, but clearly my stomach had other ideas. First day was just a few times, but now it's like I can't eat anything without running to the bathroom! My stomach constantly grumbles and feels kinda crampy too, ugh. I thought it might get better on its own, but I'm not sure anymore. I tried hydrating and eating light, like plain rice and bananas, but still I'm having loose motion pretty much all the time! I did see my doctor, and he mentioned it could be a viral thing or even food poisoning, but he didn’t prescribe anything. Is there anything I can do at home or should I go back to the doc? Also, could this be serious? Like do I need to worry about dehydration or something? I honestly never thought I’d be like this for so long, it’s pretty frustrating! How long can I expect to deal with this? Anyone know if I should avoid certain foods or if there are supplements that can help while I'm having loose motion? Thanks a lot for any advice!
