hello. loose motion for more than 2 weeks needs to be evaluated. prolonged diarrhea may cause impaired digestion leading to more loose motions. this impaired digestion mat cause fat in stools. get stool reducing substance tested.
in case it comes positive you can start lactaze drops. if infection is present then antibiotics may be required
