What Causes Of Foul-smelling Diarrhea With Severe Abdominal Cramps?

I m 60, have been having very loose stools that has a very bad odor -smells like sulfur. Watery- with force and Uncontrollable with little warning -every day for six weeks now. Some abdominal cramping, no new medicines or supplements. No new foods-I eat all organic on-GMO foods, no processed and no preservatives or soy. Thank you.

Foul smell stool with abdominal cramps and mucous may occur in case of protozoal infection such as amoebiasis or giardiasis. They can be of chronic variety. Get your stool test done (routine and culture) and medicine may be taken accordingly.
