Diarrhea can be caused by many conditions
such as: gastro-intestinal infections,
alimentary intoxications, bad-absorption
syndromes, autoimmune diseases (Crohn’s
disease, colitis ulcerative, etc.),
irritable bowel syndrome, etc. I recommend
you visit your GP (general practitioner).
A physical examination, blood/urine
analyses (standard plus bilirubin,
urobilinogen, AST, ALT, alkal
phosphatasis) and microbiological
examination of the feces for bacteria,
viruses and parasites can help diagnose
the condition. Further examinations
include an abdominal ultrasound and
colonoscopy, if necessary.
