1. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS): a group of intestinal dysfunctional diseases with the clinical manifestations of abdominal distension, abdominal pain, defecation habits and/or change in stool properties, without gastrointestinal structural and biochemical abnormalities. The treatment of this disease is based on psycho-behavioral therapy, including psychotherapy, biofeedback therapy, etc. For those who have insomnia and anxiety symptoms, they can be properly sedated with drugs such as clonazepam.
2. Inflammatory bowel disease: an idiopathic intestinal inflammatory disease involving the ileum, colon and rectum. The treatment emphasizes dietary modification and nutritional supplementation while applying aminosalicylic acid preparation such as mesalazine, glucocorticoid such as prednisone, immunosuppressant such as azathioprine and other drug therapy.
3. Intestinal tumors: most common in adults over 40 years old, for intestinal organic lesions. There may be anemia, wasting and other alarm symptoms, and it is often necessary to determine the nature of intestinal mass through colonoscopy combined with pathological examination, and early surgical treatment is needed to remove the lesion.
Frequent diarrhea with irregular stools can be caused by a variety of reasons, and it is recommended to consult a doctor in a timely manner to determine the cause of the disease and standardize the treatment.
