Once I have bloody diarrhea, my medical prescription also has Zinc besides what you've mentioned. So what can Zinc help in this situation? Should I take zinc every time I have diarrhea?
Great question Duy! There is definitely a role for Zinc in the treatment of Gastroenteritis, but only in specific situations. For children who live in areas where the risk of malnutrition and zinc deficiency is high (eg low to middle income countries), Zinc has been shown to decrease the duration of diarrhea by about a day. We don't know exactly how Zinc helps in gastroenteritis, but it is thought that Zinc may help with restoring the lining of the intestine and may help with immune function. However, there are some caveats: 1. Even though Zinc reduces the duration of diarrhea, it increases the risk of vomiting 2. Zinc has only been tested in children, so we don't know whether it is also helpful in adults 3. In high-income countries where zinc deficiency is rare, zinc is not recommended because no benefit is expected It sounds like you had quite a severe case of bloody diarrhea, so your doctor probably prescribed Zinc to help you recover as quickly as possible. Assuming that you are an adult and are well nourished (ie you get enough Zinc in your diet), you probably don't need Zinc every time you have diarrhea. However it is always best to check with your doctor to get medical advice specific to your situation. If you would like to read further about the role of Zinc, here is a great summary of the research: www.cochrane.org/CD005436/INFECTN_oral-zinc-supplementation-treating-diarrhoea-children Thanks again for a great question! :D
@@DocUnlock Great answer, too! Thanks for the video as well. Possibly the best analysis on vomiting and diarrhea that is real to me in my life! Thanks again.
@@DocUnlock thanks for the video. My son is 6.5 yrs old and having bloody diarrhea with white mucus. He went for washroom for around 25 times in 24 hours, had fever which was gone after 1 dose of paracip. Didnt slept whole night. while sleeping leaking diarrhoea with blood. We took him to doc he admitted him n gave him iv. After a day diarhea seems fine he went washroom for 8 times(still blood n mucus in stool) n 3 good pee count. Doc has prescribed zinc, pain meds(though he dont have pain, only pains just before passing stool) and ofm ds, probiotic sachet . when will it get better? When will this blood go? When i updated his doctor about again blood in diarrhea he asked to add zantac syrup. He is taking ORS, coconut water, curd, dal, rice, banana and plain water only. Can i add anything else in his diet? Please please help.
This was great, thanks, I've been looking for "how did acupuncture help the ancient chinese?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Aananielon Wordless Authority - (do a google search ) ? It is a smashing one off product for discovering how to de-program your negative thoughts and emotions without the headache.

Being recommended to Dr igho channel on youTube, was a blessing after a long time of suffering, I'm Absolutely delighted, that you cured my Chronic Diarrhea completely with your super herbs, it was like a miracle, Dr Igho you are indeed a Blessing Towards my life God bless you
I suffer from this aswell, it’s because when we’re stressed our whole body kinda shuts down in a way and our immune system drops and nothing processes properly and it causes the bowels to do that
No the gut needs attention, calm down the gut and anxiety is lessened find what works for you, chamomile is mentioned to be good. Eat more fruit snacks like blueberries .
One time, I made the mistake of taking an anti-diarrheal after eating some contaminated meat and falling ill... I was in agony for days and I just wanted my body to hurry flush away the infection.
Thanks for the Video! Sorry for chiming in, I would love your opinion. Have you considered - Penonnor Baseball Babaco (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a good one off product for ending your constipation minus the hard work. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my buddy after many years got excellent results with it.
My doctor told me not to use Imodium if you have diarrhoea as it’s better to drink water and electrolytes and flush out naturally otherwise you delay this
I'm on Day 4 of this mess. Every time I eat, my gut starts gurgling and I end up having to run to the toilet 5-10 minutes later like clockwork. Doesn't matter what I eat or drink, NOTHING stays. Even anti-diarrhea medicine doesn't work. Praying this goes away soon. 😖
I was literally in the bathroom for 2 hours and while suffering the pain my allergies attacked then made every part of my body itchy like real bad. I woke up with scratches. Worst and memoravle night of my life (just wanted to share)
I came down with hives - I called dermatologist & she said just stop eating for a couple days before my appt with her. 2 days later, all hives were gone. I stopped eating FRESH ORGANIC veggies; hives disappeared - kept eating egg yokes & grass fed local beef for protein. Fine for a couple weeks, then diarrhea started. I called docs office for an order for parasite test but no response. The lab test reported I'd had them (possibly from anywhere - maybe trip to Mexico for son's wedding a couple YEARS ago.) A doc friend suggested that while a follow up test read negative after a round of antibiotics, they are prone to return because the drug didn't kill every speck and that bacteria/worm wants to live. So.. I'm going to eat bananas because here in Hawaii, we have really good apple bananas. Thanks for this revealing & helping discourse. It's been a week; now wondering if this is an infection that has to run its course before returning to normal & then I will have to determine foods to eat.

This thing is painful, went to the doc yesterday put me on antibiotics ,anti neasea,and something for the stomach cramps i keep hydrated by drinking engergade as he told me and i have to be at work tomorrow as he only gave me off 2days its like something moving in my stomach its scary
What can we do if we had chronic diarrhea for 4 years and cannot find a reason why? Is there a diet plan you can share? I’ve lost 47 lbs since then and 17 lbs just last year. I’m down to 100 lbs and terrified.
I always avoided dairy. I ate something that caused me diarrhea throughout the day. Not fun, but at least, like this guy said, it gets rid of crap. My stomach is crying in hunger, but I'm afraid to eat anything for it might trigger me to sit on toilet longer.
You THINK? Ya mean ya don't KNOW what you ate??? Humans are all "lactose intolerant".. some are just more than others. Lactose is an enzyme in cows milk. Cows milk has ONE PURPOSE... to feed & nourish baby cows/calves until they are old enough to eat & drink on their own. Humans are not cows. Humans are only designed to drink their own species milk (their mothers) ..but ONLY while they are newborns & up till the first year. Then our system changes.. & our bodies are from then on, NOT equiped for digesting milk...COWS or HUMANS... or eating ANY dairy products. Consult with any nutritionist, they will gladly explain further.
And here I've been eating lots of yoghurt thinking getting some lactic acid bacteria into my system would work probiotically, after being down with illness. Turns out I was very wrong! Good video, very helpful.
@@finleys0912 I gave it a time frame , if it didn't get better after 5 days I will see a doctor, I was trying to avoid taking antibiotics but luckily it got better in the 5th day.. get well soon to you
I remember having diarrhoea so bad once! I got sore from sitting on the toilet so much! It was like every few minutes! I had to stay up so late and even considered sleeping there!! Its terrible

I've had diarrhea 4 times. The first three the diarrhea went away within a week after awful bowel movements, the last ones were me trapped on the toilet for hours. I believe the last heavy bowel movement was necessary to clean out the potential infection that caused the diarrhea. This is my 4th right now. I have experienced 4 days of pure hell to pass this demon from my gut.
Fuuuuuu this sucks so much! I ate takeout and now my stomach is playing up 😭😭. Literally just want to stay in bed but then I have to get up every half hour to go to the toilet.
Thank you so much because I ate some warm but cold chicken and the next morning I'm going back and fourth of diarrhea then I got better after drinking Gatorade
I’ve had diarrhea on and off in the last two weeks. The last two batches of my cooked rice I left uncovered in the fridge and I didn’t freeze any of it. I again bugged my mom about her bag of carrots in the same fridge getting dark in spots. Since she’s a narcissist she’s never wrong, so I pulled the drawer out of fridge with her carrots and brought it out to her. Of course she didn’t admit that they were rotting. But she removed everything but the lettuce and put the drawer back. Prior to my chronic Lyme disease diagnosis 10 years ago she would put lots of veggies in the prior fridge and leave them in so long that the fluids from the rotting veggies drained onto the carpet in front of the fridge and ruined that carpet which we had to remove before the new fridge went in. This is just outside the door of my bedroom. Back then whenever I’d bring up the rotting veggies is that fridge she would yell at me “I DON’T GUVE A D___! She has her own fridge in the kitchen. Lots of food that she puts in the fridge by my bedroom spoils before she gets to it.
I’m in Mexico for a trip and this is my last week ( here for 3 weeks) so far 4 people have had diarrhea including me I’ve had loss of appetite and fatigued anyways I want to tell you guys something nasty so the last 2 days my diarrhea has literally just been water brown water - it’s day 3 not sure I wasn’t counting but I’m leaving in 5 days so hopefully it goes away I don’t want to be in the airplane peeing from my butt 😌
I was gonna say even though this comment is old that no it is not bad and just means that you anus has been irritated or is inflamed which can happen when having stomach problems, that being said if it hurts super super bad than it is worth seeing medical personal over
I'm 47 and I can count the amount of times I've had diarrhea on my fingers. Though, I'm always seeing people online talking about getting diarrhea after simply eating certain foods. I can't relate. Why do some people get diarrhea all the time and is there something wrong with my that I almost never get it?
Activated charcoal is normally used in situations of drug overdose and accidental poisoning because of its ability to bind to chemicals and prevent them from being absorbed into the body. Some people have tried using charcoal in gastroenteritis with the theory that this may be able to absorb the excess fluid in the gut (therefore reducing the frequency of bowel motions) and may even be able to bind to bacteria/toxins. There isn't a lot of research backing this up so charcoal isn't used routinely in the treatment of gastro. What was your experience with activated charcoal? Do you remember if it helped?
I totally agree - in many illnesses where the immune system would clear the infection anyway, it is really tricky to know whether a particular intervention is making any difference! That's why we need randomised controlled trials to compare between a group of people who are given a particular intervention (eg charcoal) and a control group that doesn't receive the same intervention. In that sense, probiotics have pretty good evidence behind them - there have been 63 trials of probiotics VS no probiotics (or placebo). So apart from rehydration, probiotics are a good option to reduce the duration of diarrhea. Thanks for your question and for sharing your experience :)
Bro i had gastroenteritis last year due to severe food poisoning and took months to recover. Ive somehow got it again and I'm really certain i never ate anything dodgy. Its returned at the same time as last year and idk why?
Hey please help me! I have been having pain in my stomach for at least 2 days and I’m peeing too much please tell me what’s wrong and how I should treat it, thanks.
Dont know how many people are in the same boat but my diarrhea mainly comes from being bare foot. If my feet are cold for a long time i get diarrhea and as long as im bare foot it never ends. If i start wearing socks(slighlty thick ones), i never become diarhea again. Also eating yoghurt and banana is a must when you are diarrhea :)
Hey best video I have seen on this topic! As I am currently suffering with this condition. On day three and still just like water every few hours but at least no more fever, headaches and cramping! Maybe I'm on the mend I hope?!?😖
I've been trying to find an answer for this all over google, but the only answers I get are "infections cause it." Cool... tell me HOW the infection causes it. Someone finally did. Thank you.
This is totally my own fault since in my desperate hunger yesterday I ate a stiff ass bread. I heat it up in the microwave hoping it would ya know kill any dangerous bacteria or something but I guess it didn’t lol. It’s nice to know there’s so many ppl feeling as shitty as I do though.
The trout I ate yesterday had a different taste to it and today after eating dinner it was like a water fountain from my behind 😳Gonna drink lots today and hope my body gets rid of this quickly
I ate hamburger and a pizza for 2 days and my stomach felt bad. So I took anti acid and also pepto and some cold iron pills. Then ate a soup after that I tried to take olive oil after that baking soda and lemon I pooped black 3 times then the last seemed normal until now.
Well.. I looked up diarrhoea, as this is what I have been experiencing now. It is of a dark brown colour and watery. Like my attacks are sudden urgent and explosive. SOMETHING wants out of my body! The diarrhoea fortunately is NOT bloody, nor mucous being present. Like I have a slight gut pain, and also no vomiting. I do have to make frequent urgent trips to the bathroom about on average of every hour and a half (in a 24 hour day). This has been like as my sleep pattern has been affected, also fatigued. Now I came across what is called Brainerd diarrhoea. Apparently a small rural town like by a lake in Minnesota back in 1983 has been the first case. Over a hundred people have been affected. Now it is said that the majority of people are elderly. But like me (I am a 17yo male) like young people can also be and have been affected. I am like concerned that I have somehow contracted BD, as I haven't been drinking raw milk, however where I am at like the tap water tastes simply AWFUL! IAs it is difficult to this day some 41 years later, the cause, it is hard to diagnose and treat. Like I am only from what I have read about Brainerd I also learned it is not contagious, as it apparently cannot passed on from one person to other people. Like I suppose I really ought to seek a doctor or a paediatric gastroenterologist to see if I am like right in my assumption. Another issue, like I have also learned that it can last for a long time, from a month or so to even three years! I have been suffering almost 6 weeks, I like do hope that I shan't have this for three years myself! Now it does seem to come on sporadically, on and off. But I suppose finally not having symptoms for a while I would like assume that I am finally over with this. Also lastly I also found out like that once having BD you can't get it again. like I don't know how that works.
Yesterday, I ate food that I can't remember how old it was. Nuked it in the microwave and thought that would kill all the bacteria. Plus it was a hot day, and I had little water.
Lol I ate popcorn, hot chips and pretzels bites and large soda at the movies last night and suddenly I got woken up by a huge stomach ache then it was diarrhea, it started at 6 now it’s 8 😭 I can’t get up pls
Well... the reason I watched this is because right now I do have diarrhora. fact is, I have ben having this for a coulpe of days now. It is annoying, as on average I have to run to the loo from every three to two hours. I went to my pardiatrician (I am still a young adult) and I had a stool sample taken. Well... it came up positive for a certain strain of adenovirus, if I remember the number right it is something like F40 or so. I have been told that antibiotics generally don't work on viruses. AS, I have to ride this one out. How long? I don't know. It ends when it ends.
I just went out for Mother’s Day and ate at a restaurant and the next day I woke up with really bad diarrhea and my mom told me to take pills for it I took some it did help but my stomach still hurted. should I stop taking the pills? And let it run it’s course?

I’ve had diarrhea on and off in the last two weeks. The last two batches of my cooked rice I left uncovered in the fridge and I didn’t freeze any of it. I again bugged my mom about her bag of carrots in the same fridge getting dark in spots. Since she’s a narcissist she’s never wrong, so I pulled the drawer out of fridge with her carrots and brought it out to her. Of course she didn’t admit that they were rotting. But she removed everything but the lettuce and put the drawer back. Prior to my chronic Lyme disease diagnosis 10 years ago she would put lots of veggies in the prior fridge and leave them in so long that the fluids from the rotting veggies drained onto the carpet in front of the fridge and ruined that carpet which we had to remove before the new fridge went in. This is just outside the door of my bedroom. Back then whenever I’d bring up the rotting veggies is that fridge she would yell at me “I DON’T GUVE A D___!
She has her own fridge in the kitchen. Lots of food that she puts in the fridge by my bedroom spoils before she gets to it.
That's horrible,I think it can be interpreted as poisoning,so she might even deserve a prison sentence
I’m in Mexico for a trip and this is my last week ( here for 3 weeks) so far 4 people have had diarrhea including me I’ve had loss of appetite and fatigued anyways I want to tell you guys something nasty so the last 2 days my diarrhea has literally just been water brown water - it’s day 3 not sure I wasn’t counting but I’m leaving in 5 days so hopefully it goes away I don’t want to be in the airplane peeing from my butt 😌
I asked my mum to help me right now and I feel much better
Is it bad when it burns?
I stop eating spicy Cheetos 3 months ago lol
I was gonna say even though this comment is old that no it is not bad and just means that you anus has been irritated or is inflamed which can happen when having stomach problems, that being said if it hurts super super bad than it is worth seeing medical personal over
I'm 47 and I can count the amount of times I've had diarrhea on my fingers. Though, I'm always seeing people online talking about getting diarrhea after simply eating certain foods. I can't relate. Why do some people get diarrhea all the time and is there something wrong with my that I almost never get it?
Let me help my homies out, whenever you got diarrhea you should drink water with a bit of salt and lime. Always helps out.
I was prescribed charcoal tablets once. How does this help?
Activated charcoal is normally used in situations of drug overdose and accidental poisoning because of its ability to bind to chemicals and prevent them from being absorbed into the body.
Some people have tried using charcoal in gastroenteritis with the theory that this may be able to absorb the excess fluid in the gut (therefore reducing the frequency of bowel motions) and may even be able to bind to bacteria/toxins. There isn't a lot of research backing this up so charcoal isn't used routinely in the treatment of gastro.
What was your experience with activated charcoal? Do you remember if it helped?
@@DocUnlock Yes it did. But then again it could've been because the condition was already improving. I can't really tell.
I totally agree - in many illnesses where the immune system would clear the infection anyway, it is really tricky to know whether a particular intervention is making any difference!
That's why we need randomised controlled trials to compare between a group of people who are given a particular intervention (eg charcoal) and a control group that doesn't receive the same intervention.
In that sense, probiotics have pretty good evidence behind them - there have been 63 trials of probiotics VS no probiotics (or placebo). So apart from rehydration, probiotics are a good option to reduce the duration of diarrhea.
Thanks for your question and for sharing your experience :)
@@DocUnlock I'll keep probiotics in mind the next time I get the runs. Thanks for your replies. Keep up the good work, Doc!
Me to
Bro i had gastroenteritis last year due to severe food poisoning and took months to recover. Ive somehow got it again and I'm really certain i never ate anything dodgy. Its returned at the same time as last year and idk why?
a little over a month of diarrhea. literally having to take trips every 2-4 hours. actually hell. i will shed a tear when i pass a regular stool again
I’m on year 17 of diarrhoea with not a single solid movement
@@bobbiemason7912 holy shittt mann, i couldnt even imagine
@Crochet Crazii I am
@@SamandRie What did your doctor say?
@@phil32888 I got diagnosed with ulcerative colitis a few days ago...
Hey please help me! I have been having pain in my stomach for at least 2 days and I’m peeing too much please tell me what’s wrong and how I should treat it, thanks.
Dont know how many people are in the same boat but my diarrhea mainly comes from being bare foot. If my feet are cold for a long time i get diarrhea and as long as im bare foot it never ends. If i start wearing socks(slighlty thick ones), i never become diarhea again. Also eating yoghurt and banana is a must when you are diarrhea :)
Same happens to me, bit only when im cold
I'm curious, are you extremely thin? I don't know why, but when I see very thin people I often think, "They must have frequent diarrhea." Is it true?.
Hey best video I have seen on this topic! As I am currently suffering with this condition. On day three and still just like water every few hours but at least no more fever, headaches and cramping! Maybe I'm on the mend I hope?!?😖
I've been trying to find an answer for this all over google, but the only answers I get are "infections cause it." Cool... tell me HOW the infection causes it. Someone finally did. Thank you.
This is totally my own fault since in my desperate hunger yesterday I ate a stiff ass bread. I heat it up in the microwave hoping it would ya know kill any dangerous bacteria or something but I guess it didn’t lol. It’s nice to know there’s so many ppl feeling as shitty as I do though.
😂
There’s times this diarrhea comes in like a wrecking ball.
Them Spicy lamb and rice hit hard

Ughh..dischisting Im dying man help me please seriousky this is fking hell maaan

When you get baked and just eat anything in the fridge, I regret my decision
I ate hamburger and a pizza for 2 days and my stomach felt bad. So I took anti acid and also pepto and some cold iron pills. Then ate a soup after that I tried to take olive oil after that baking soda and lemon I pooped black 3 times then the last seemed normal until now.
O_o
You answered all the important questions I had . Ty
Damn I’ve been lucky I’m still alive
😂 oh yes
People say to eat salty food like pretzels and crackers is that true

Great video Doc, I'm Subscribed!
Thank you for your support!
This information was very helpful thank you.
Well.. I looked up diarrhoea, as this is what I have been experiencing now. It is of a dark brown colour and watery. Like my attacks are sudden urgent and explosive. SOMETHING wants out of my body! The diarrhoea fortunately is NOT bloody, nor mucous being present. Like I have a slight gut pain, and also no vomiting. I do have to make frequent urgent trips to the bathroom about on average of every hour and a half (in a 24 hour day). This has been like as my sleep pattern has been affected, also fatigued. Now I came across what is called Brainerd diarrhoea. Apparently a small rural town like by a lake in Minnesota back in 1983 has been the first case.
Over a hundred people have been affected. Now it is said that the majority of people are elderly. But like me (I am a 17yo male) like young people can also be and have been affected. I am like concerned that I have somehow contracted BD, as I haven't been drinking raw milk, however where I am at like the tap water tastes simply AWFUL! IAs it is difficult to this day some 41 years later, the cause, it is hard to diagnose and treat. Like I am only from what I have read about Brainerd I also learned it is not contagious, as it apparently cannot passed on from one person to other people.
Like I suppose I really ought to seek a doctor or a paediatric gastroenterologist to see if I am like right in my assumption. Another issue, like I have also learned that it can last for a long time, from a month or so to even three years! I have been suffering almost 6 weeks, I like do hope that I shan't have this for three years myself! Now it does seem to come on sporadically, on and off. But I suppose finally not having symptoms for a while I would like assume that I am finally over with this. Also lastly I also found out like that once having BD you can't get it again. like I don't know how that works.
I had “lactose free” milk, and yet here I am…
Yesterday, I ate food that I can't remember how old it was. Nuked it in the microwave and thought that would kill all the bacteria. Plus it was a hot day, and I had little water.
Lol I ate popcorn, hot chips and pretzels bites and large soda at the movies last night and suddenly I got woken up by a huge stomach ache then it was diarrhea, it started at 6 now it’s 8 😭 I can’t get up pls
The greatest eyebrows I've ever seen
That's a huge eyebrows
Very informative . Thank you
Your voice makes me feel better. 😊
My stomach feels like it’s dying
so beautifully explained
Low key diarrhea feels good coming out 😂😂😂
Ate some school food yesterday, didn’t go so well, at least now I know what might have caused it
i don't trust my fart right now...
Well... the reason I watched this is because right now I do have diarrhora. fact is, I have ben having this for a coulpe of days now. It is annoying, as on average I have to run to the loo from every three to two hours. I went to my pardiatrician (I am still a young adult) and I had a stool sample taken. Well... it came up positive for a certain strain of adenovirus, if I remember the number right it is something like F40 or so. I have been told that antibiotics generally don't work on viruses. AS, I have to ride this one out. How long? I don't know. It ends when it ends.
Currently on the toilet.
Who watching this on the toilet😅

I ate old pies and I’ve been shitting water for days

Hi! Is there evidence for the usage of escopolamine in diarrhoea? Good or bad?
