Why do I have diarrhoea?
Diarrhoea usually happens when you have a stomach bug, or gastroenteritis. This can be caused by a virus, such as norovirus, or food poisoning. When you have diarrhoea, it means that your bowel can’t absorb fluid or is secreting extra fluid, which is then passed from the body. Some of the other causes of diarrhoea include:
- IBS
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Coeliac disease
- Diverticular disease
- Drinking too much alcohol
- Food allergies or intolerances
- Some medications
