home remedy for loose motion - #20645

Rhea

I am super worried right now because my little sister, who’s only 10, has been having loose motion for the last couple of days. She started complaining about stomach cramps last Friday, and I thought it was just something minor. But then, it got worse and now she’s been running to the bathroom way too often. We thought it might be something she ate, but I can't pinpoint what it could be. I did some googling about home remedy for loose motion and found a bunch of suggestions— like turmeric and ginger might help? We've tried giving her some plain rice and applesauce, but it doesn't seem to be doing much. It’s been tough seeing her like this, especially when she starts feeling weak. I read that dehydration can be a big issue with loose motion, so we've been giving her water, but she’s not really drinking enough. I’d really appreciate any tips or home remedy for loose motion that works wonders. Is there anything else we can try? Should I be concerned about taking her to the doctor or is it fine to try these home clothes first? How do you know when it’s time to seek medical attention? I just want her to feel better soon. Thanks!
