Symptom #2: Diarrhea

Diarrhea is another common symptom with a range of possible causes. Quite often it is simply a case of us having eaten food that upsets our digestive system, particularly foods with spices. However, it can also be a sign of something more serious and is something that should not be taken lightly if symptoms persist.

Diarrhea is caused when food moves through the digestive system too quickly for sufficient water to be absorbed. This results in watery stools and also means the patient doesn’t get the water they need. This can lead to dehydration and to some very serious problems in severe cases.
