10 Symptoms of Dysentery

Symptom #7: Painful Stools
Visits to the bathroom are usually straightforward affairs. Our digestive system has evolved to process food and waste so efficiently and effectively that removing waste is easy for us. Even solids will usually pass through us with minimal effort, but some diseases can make this far more difficult than it usually is.
One symptom of dysentery is that it can become particularly painful to pass stools, despite them being watery and loose. This pain is often felt in the abdomen and also sometimes in the rectum. Such pains when passing stools are not normal and you might need to consider asking a medical professional for advice.
