loose motion how to stop - #19318

Aarav

I am dealing with some really frustrating loose motion right now. It started suddenly after I thought I had food poisoning – ate at this sketchy little diner last week and ever since then, it’s been a mess, seriously. I keep having these urgent rushes to the bathroom, like I can’t even go out without worrying about if I’ll find a restroom. I thought maybe it was just a 24-hour thing, but here I am days later, and being in this situation is driving me crazy! I’ve tried some basic things like staying hydrated and making sure I’m eating bland foods, but honestly, I don’t know how much longer I can handle this. I googled “loose motion how to stop” and came across so many different tips, but nothing seems to be working. Are there any specific medicines or remedies you all would recommend? I’ve heard about the BRAT diet, does that really help? I don’t know if I should go see a doctor or just wait it out, like how do I know when it’s serious? It’s just really annoying because it’s affecting everything—work, social life. Help! What do you all think is the best way to deal with loose motion how to stop it for good?
