Brief Answer:
Take yoghurt and probiotic capsules.
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX
The diarrhoea you are suffering from is probably due to antibiotics that you took for bronchitis. You should take yoghurt with your meals and take 1 or 2 probiotic capsules daily.
Avoid spicy and oily food and also avoid food which is high in fibre for some time. Give it time and it will improve in due course of time.
