What’s wrong with going to the bathroom more often every day?

The high number of stools going to the toilet every day, clinically called diarrhea, can be seen in diseases of the digestive system as well as in diseases outside the digestive system. First of all, there are two major possibilities for the digestive system, organic and functional. Functional diarrhea includes diarrheal irritable bowel syndrome, in which patients may experience abdominal pain and diarrhea after every cold, stimulating, greasy and other stimulating diet, and it is a functional disease. Organic lesions such as gastrointestinal inflammation, enteritis, inflammatory bowel disease, ischemic enteritis, gastrointestinal polyps or tumors may lead to increased stool frequency. Secondly, some pancreatic diseases and gallbladder diseases may also lead to abnormal stool frequency. Finally, in addition to the digestive system itself, diseases outside the digestive system should also be considered, such as the patient is endocrine disease, hyperthyroidism can also lead to an increase in the number of stools. Once a patient has a high number of stools in the toilet, it is recommended that he or she should visit a hospital, where the doctor will conduct appropriate examinations based on symptoms and signs, and if necessary, perform imaging examinations such as colonoscopy and CT.
