Brief Answer:
Please take high fiber diet.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Without clinical examination I would not be able to identify the cause. However based on your description the two close possibilities are irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or Colonic infection.
I prefer Rifaximine tablet along with Metronidazole tablet. I also add Pre and Probiotic capsule to my patients with similar complaints. Discuss about these options with your treating doctor.

Because of the frequent stool, it is burning. You can apply Ointment containing Sucralfate and Lidocaine.
You should be free and relaxed.
Nothing to worry.It will come down.

Wish you good health.
Regards
