Diarrhoea
Diarrhoea is a common but unpleasant condition that can cause you to pass stools that are looser and more frequent than normal. It can be caused by a variety of factors and usually affects people from time to time.
It can be a symptom of a bowel infection such as gastroenteritis or caused by a food allergy or food poisoning, anxiety or a long-term condition, such as IBS. Frequent diarrhoea can cause complications such as dehydration due to the amount of fluid being lost when passing watery stools.
