Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As I'm unable to examine you directly, I assume you are suffering from IBS-D [irritable bowel syndrome predominant diarrhea], but since symptoms are more and there is no relief:
. Consult a Gastroenterologist . Stool examination . Sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy . K.U.B. X-ray and Barium enema, till then avoid fatty foods, oil, ghee, raw vegetables, overeating
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
