What Causes Loose Motion?

Hi, in may I suffered with loose stools and sometimes they were very thin and pencil like. I visited my doctor several times and they took a stool sample and blood tests all if which came back normal. After a couple of weeks everything went back to normal again but it's happening again now. What is going in?

Hello,

Some advice that I can give to you is:

-Use over the counter option like Imodium
-Take frequent, small sips of water or a rehydration drink and small bites of salty crackers
-Begin eating mild foods the next day or sooner, depending on how you feel
-Take Probiotics

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
