What Is Causing My Frequent Loose Stools?

I am a healthy 24 year old man. I recently moved out on my own. I have regular bowel movements twice a day, everyday. Once every couple of days tho, it seems that one of those bowel movements can be watery or be diarrhea. I am never in any pain or feel sick. It just concerns me that this is too often to have diarrhea. I also was on the drug accutane ten years ago, that I have heard can cause digestive problems. Please let me know.

Hello,

It can be due to a gastrointestinal infection, inflammatory bowel disease. You are advised to take antibiotics like Ofloxacin 200mg+ornidazole 500mg twice daily for 5 days.

You also take probiotics in the diet. Avoid the intake of coffee and other beverages. Maintain hygiene and take boiled water. You will relieve in a few days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
