Acute and Chronic Diarrhea in Non-Specific Colonic Diseases

Acute and chronic diarrhea are common symptoms of non-specific colonic diseases such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Acute diarrhea often lasts less than two weeks, characterized by frequent watery stools, abdominal cramps, and urgency. It can result from infections, food intolerances, or stress. Chronic diarrhea, persisting for more than four weeks, may indicate deeper inflammation or functional disorders. Patients often report bloating, mucus in stools, and fluctuating bowel habits. Proper diagnosis involves stool tests, endoscopy, and imaging. Timely intervention, including dietary adjustments and medications, is essential to manage these symptoms and improve quality of life.
