Ongoing watery diarrhoea with bloating and stomach pain is most often due to an infection or food-related irritation, and the priority is to prevent dehydration; start taking oral rehydration solution (ORS) in small, frequent sips, drink plenty of fluids, and eat light foods like rice, curd, or bananas while avoiding oily or spicy items. Since Enteroquinol has not helped, do not keep taking repeated doses without medical advice, as it is not always effective or recommended for all types of diarrhoea. You can consider a probiotic and, if needed, a doctor may prescribe medicines for symptom relief, but antibiotics are usually not required unless there is a specific bacterial cause. Seek medical care urgently if you develop signs like dehydration (less urine, dizziness), high fever, blood in stools, severe pain, or if diarrhoea continues beyond 2-3 days.
