I Am Having Diarrhea For 5 Days And Medicines Are Not Helping. Should I Consult A Doctor ?
I have had diarrhea for 5 days now...the watery stools are gone, but still very loose. Initially suspected food poisining, but don t think it s the case (no one else got sick). Seems to hit me mostly during the early morning hours...3am or so. No real cramping, just discomfort. Pepto and other anti-diarrhea meds aren t helping. Is this just a bug that needs to run its course or do I need meds from the doctor?

hello and welcome to healthcare magic forum.
Homoepathically speaking this diarrhea is not due some bug but a predisposition. which will go away by just correcting your diet for sometime. Otherwise if you need a medicine which is mild yet powerful in stopping your trouble then I would advise you to tke sulphur 30 6 pills once at night before sleeping. for five days and you will get a good releif.
wishing you good health!
