GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Patients with small-volume diarrhea often have disease in their left colon or rectum, often an inflammatory process. But probably the most common cause for intermittent small-volume chronic diarrhea is the irritable bowel syndrome, which is always a diagnosis of exclusion.

Detailed explanation-2: -Diarrhea is considered the event of passing watery, loose stools 3 or more times in a day. When suffering from diarrhea, the digestion process becomes too fast to allow for the large intestine to absorb the excess liquid.

Detailed explanation-3: -Although diarrhea associated with some GI disorders appears related to either the small or large bowel, in many cases the disease process involves both small and large intestines. Diarrhea of “mixed bowel” origin has some characteristics of both small and large bowel diarrhea.

Detailed explanation-4: -The most common causes of acute and persistent diarrhea are infections, travelers’ diarrhea, and side effects of medicines. Viral infections. Many viruses cause diarrhea, including norovirus link and rotavirus link. Viral gastroenteritis is a common cause of acute diarrhea.

Detailed explanation-5: -Diarrhea can cause dehydration (when your body loses large amounts of water), electrolyte imbalance (loss of sodium, potassium and magnesium that play a key role in vital bodily functions) and kidney failure (not enough blood/fluid is supplied to the kidneys).
