Tell me more about this!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I will like to know more about this.

1. How often do you have watery stools/How many times in day?
2. Is the stool watery or soft?
3. Any blood or mucus in stool?
4. Has the frequency been increasing, same or decreasing?

Most important thing at this time is to drink much to avoid getting dehydrated. Drink as much as you can.

Waiting to hear from you. Wishing you well.
