How to get rid of diarreah

Question

I've had diarreah for 5 days now and I can't stop it...

What should I be eating and drinking and is there anything I can do to prevent it? I already went to a doctor and he said that I should eat foods with more carbohydrates but I can't stop the diarrheah....

Please help

Answer 1

I think you should go to another Dr., that sounds like really stupid advice. If you have had diarrhea for five days, then you are probably really dehydrated by now. Your stomach hurts, you are dizzy, tired and having severe diarrhea and the dr. tells you to eat more carbohydrates? You are sick, see someone else right away.

you need a crapload of water.

diarrhea used to cause a lot of deaths because people kept dying of dehydration.

and def go to the emergency room

Answer 6

wow, if you've had it for 5 days youshould go to the emergency room, your body is most likely depleted from fluids. You'll probably need an IV to get fluids into your system. Im surprised your dr didnt advise that!!

You could always try some over the counter medicine like pepto bismal.

Five days is getting serious.  You might want to consult another doctor.

I would suggest staying away from fruits, spicy foods and too much sugar.  Drink TONS of water.  Not only will it help the diarrhea go away, it is so important to stay hydrated.  Drink sports drinks if you want - like Gatorade.

Try getting enough fiber in, and take OTC anti-diarrheal medicines as directed.

Eat rice lots of white rice until you can see another doctor.
