• What is diarrhea:

As per World Health Organisation (WHO), diarrhea is defined as 3 or more watery/ loose stools within the time span of 24 hours.

• What are the main causes?

Usually, towards the end of summer and early rainy season, episodes of diarrhea are common; such diarrhea is also called seasonal diarrhea. In India, Diarrhoea is a major public health problem in children under 5 years of age.

The main factors that cause diarrhea are:

• Unhygienic living conditions.
• Using non-potable drinking water
• Poor nutrition
• Ingestion of faecal contaminated water or food, and direct contact with infected faeces.
• Using infant feeding bottles, they easily become contaminated with fecal bacteria and are difficult to clean. This increases the risk of contamination.
• Storing cooked food at room temperature. When food is cooked and then saved to be used later, it may easily be contaminated, for example, by contact with contaminated surfaces or containers.
• Failure to wash hands properly after defecation, after disposing of faeces or before handling food.
• Immunity of a person: people will lower immunity catch infections more easily than people with good immunity.

• Management of diarrhea:

General management is to keep the body hydrated. Oral Rehydration Therapy is advised to maintain water and electrolyte balance. The treatment of patients with diarrhoea must be based on the major features of the disease and an understanding of the underlying pathogenetic mechanisms.
