Condition Overview & Pathology

Diarrhea lasting longer than 4 weeks is considered chronic and warrants thorough gastroenterological evaluation.

Underlying causes include celiac disease (wheat allergy), inflammatory bowel disease (Ulcerative Colitis / Crohn's), malabsorption syndromes, chronic intestinal infections, or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D).

Care Hospital performs duodenal mucosal biopsy, colonoscopy, stool microbiology, and breath tests to identify the precise etiology.

Common Signs & Symptoms to Watch For

Frequent watery or loose bowel movements (>3 times daily)
Abdominal cramping, bloating, and gas
Unintended weight loss & dehydration

Recommended Diagnostic Workups

Colonoscopy with Ileoscopy & Biopsy
IgA anti-tTG Celiac Serology & Duodenal Biopsy
Stool Routine, Culture, Parasites & Fecal Calprotectin

Treatment & Management Protocols

Etiology-specific medication (gluten-free diet for celiac, anti-inflammatory drugs for IBD, probiotics).
Fluid electrolyte replenishment and customized dietary management.
