How Can Diarrhea Be Treated?
Was confined to my hospital room for the last nine days, (escaped today) Lol, with some breathing issues. I have had loose corny stools all day. They had me on all kinds of meds, a liquid concoction as well as a stool softener for days, could this be the problem?

Hello,
It could be a minor gastroenteritis.
As of now, you can take drugs like racecadotril for symptomatic relief.
Generally, it will settle by a couple of days.
If symptoms persist better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
