The etiology of prolonged failure to form stools mainly includes infectious factors and non-infectious factors.
1. Infectious factors: such as bacterial infections, viral infections, parasitic infections, etc. Common pathogens include salmonella, shigella, rotavirus, amoeba, etc., which can lead to diarrhea, unformed stools, often accompanied by fever, abdominal pain, vomiting, dehydration and other symptoms.
2. Non-infectious factors: such as eating indigestible food, improper medication, cold weather, gastrointestinal tumors, cholecystitis, chronic pancreatitis, gallstones, hyperthyroidism, irritable bowel syndrome and so on, can lead to the symptoms of irregular stools.
Patients with long-term unshaped stools need to actively seek medical attention to clarify the cause of the disease under the guidance of a professional physician, and at the same time should pay attention to diet to avoid aggravating the condition.
