| ABOUT DIARRHEA |
1.Diarrhea: Diarrhea is a disease caused by thin or soft bowel movements at
least three times or more per day. It usually lasts for a few days and causes
excess fluid to leak out, resulting in dehydration. Often the symptoms of
dehydration begin and the normal elasticity of the skin is lost. And as the
severity of diarrhea increases, so do other symptoms such as decreased
urination, pale skin color, rapid heart rate, and decreased ability to respond.
However, babies who are breastfed may have a thin but not watery stool.
2. Causes of Diarrhea: The most common cause is an infection of the intestines caused by a virus, bacteria, parasite, or a disease known as gastroenteritis. Most of these infections are caused by food or drink contaminated with feces or are transmitted directly from another infected person. The following are some of the reasons:
* Open defecation
Open defecation is one of the leading causes of diarrhea in children. Diarrhea is one of the leading causes of infant mortality in developing countries.
* Bacterial diarrhea
Different bacteria such as Salmonella, Shigella flexneri, Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli, Vibrio etc. can cause diarrhea.
* Virus-caused diarrhea Rotavirus, hepatitis-A virus can cause diarrhea.
* Diarrhea caused by fungus
* Worm-caused diarrhea
* Diarrhea giardia caused by protozoa,
* Antamiba is responsible for the national protozoa diarrhea.
* Uninfected diarrhea
* Diarrhea of unknown cause
Often the cause of diarrhea is not known in any area or person. It is seen that diarrhea has occurred even though there is no cause. An example of such an event is Brainard's diarrhea. Outbreaks appear to be exacerbated during this time in the United States. No bacteria, viruses, protozoa or any other cause was found.
3. Types of diarrhea: Diarrhea can be divided into three parts: * Short standing water-like diarrhea, * Short-lived diarrhea with blood, * And chronic diarrhea. Short-lived water-like diarrhea can be caused by cholera infection. If it is accompanied by blood, it is also called blood diarrhea. Among the causes of diarrhea other than pathogenic bacterial infections are: * Hyperthyroidism, * Inability to tolerate lactose in milk, * Inflammatory bowel disease, * Irritable bowel syndrome can also cause diarrhea as a side effect of some medications. In most cases stool culture or stool testing is not necessary to know for sure the exact cause.
