Brief Answer:
It can be viral gastrointestinal infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
Watery diarrhea with no other symptoms may be related to any viral gastrointestinal infection or food poisoning.
Keep yourself hydrated having more water and fluids.
Avoid having fruit juices and fruits.
You can use loperamid to help stop it and also probiotics such enterogerina or yovita to re-establish the intestinal flora.
It may last for 3-5 days.


Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

It is quite normal.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and thank you for asking again.
Seeing indigested in stools is normal while having diarrhea due to rapid intestinal transit.
I don't think this is something to worry .
You can use loperamid to reduce diarrhea and also have more water and fluids to keep hydrated.

Brief Answer:
Using Imodium is needed.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and thank you for asking again.

I think you are having a gastrointestinal tract infection.
You may need 5-7 days to get better.

You may need to use loperamide (e.g. Imodium) for diarrhea, and probiotics such as Enterogerina to establish the intestinal flora.

Avoid having too much fruit and fruit juices.

Have more water.
