I am having loose motions 5 to 6 times a day after a recent stomach infection, and even with normal food, it is not settling. What should I do to stop it?
Frequent loose motions after a recent infection may be due to ongoing gut irritation or an imbalance of normal intestinal bacteria. Even with normal food, the intestine may take time to recover and become sensitive for a while. Follow a light diet, avoid spicy or oily foods and maintain good hydration to support healing. Consult a doctor if symptoms persist or worsen, or if you feel weak, for proper evaluation and treatment.
