Suggest Cure For Watery Stools

Eight years ago I had rectal cancer and have loose bowls a lot of the time. Normally I can control this and my life with over the counter medicine. Over the last three of four days I have been having very watery stools and have taken more than normal amounts of amodium. I do not have a fever am not sick to my stomach.

I d' prefer know more about your surgery was the normal route conserved or not (anus praeter). But of course diarrea is a common complication of this situation and apart from Imodium in short periods, you should pay attention to the diet : yougurt, rice well boilde, bananas well done, boiled eggs are "the classic and global diarrea diet" and from mediceines I d' recomend probiotics.
