"What Causes Upset Stomach or Diarrhea?"

Diarrhea is clinically referred to as diarrhea. It is often caused by unclean diet, inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and inflammation of surrounding organs. Detailed analysis is as follows:

1. Improper Diet:

Improper diet can easily induce acute gastroenteritis, especially in summer. Patients may experience diarrhea accompanied by nausea, vomiting, fever, and other discomforts. It is necessary to stop diarrhea and prevent dehydration. Commonly used medications for diarrhea include Compound Diphenoxylate Tablets and Montmorillonite Powder. Additionally, Norfloxacin Capsules and Sulfamethoxazole, Trimethoprim, and Sulfadiazine Tablets can be used for anti-infective treatment, while electrolytes such as sodium chloride and potassium chloride are administered for symptomatic treatment.

2. Inflammatory Bowel Disease:

This includes Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, which cause abdominal pain and diarrhea, often accompanied by mucopurulent bloody stools, malnutrition, and weight loss. Further diagnosis can be made through colonoscopy. After confirmation, Sulfasalazine Enteric-coated Tablets and Mesalazine Enteric-coated Tablets can be prescribed according to the doctor's instructions. For severe diarrhea, Compound Diphenoxylate Tablets and Montmorillonite Powder can be used to stop diarrhea.

3. Irritable Bowel Syndrome:

The cause of irritable bowel syndrome is unknown but may be related to abnormal gastrointestinal motility, abnormal visceral sensation, intestinal infection, intestinal hormones, and psychological disorders. Patients often show no specific abnormalities upon examination. The diagnosis can be considered based on medical history and the exclusion of organic diseases. If necessary, Montmorillonite Powder and Loperamide Hydrochloride Capsules can be used to treat diarrhea.

4. Inflammation of Surrounding Organs:

Such as pelvic inflammatory disease, peritonitis, and urinary tract infections, the inflammatory stimulation caused by infections in surrounding organs of the abdominal cavity can result in significant abdominal pain and can also lead to rapid reflexive intestinal motility and diarrhea. Treatment should target the underlying cause, such as administering Metronidazole Tablets, Tinidazole Tablets, and Ceftoperazone Sodium and Sulbactam Sodium for Injection for anti-infective therapy.

Gastrointestinal tumors may also cause diarrhea symptoms, accompanied by upper abdominal fullness, nausea, vomiting, black stools, or hematemesis. If symptoms persist, it is recommended to promptly undergo relevant examinations at a hospital to determine the cause and receive targeted treatment.
