How to treat long-term diarrhea

Diarrhea is something that almost everyone will experience. Because whether it is caused by diet or disease, diarrhea is a very common condition. In fact, many people can relieve diarrhea through the body's self-regulating ability, but some friends find that they are very prone to diarrhea. Long-term diarrhea can be very harmful to the body. So, how to treat long-term diarrhea?

What to do if you have frequent diarrhea

Drinking sugar and salt water

When diarrhea symptoms occur due to certain reasons, the normal human body will show signs of severe dehydration. Therefore, in this case, the body should be replenished with missing water in time, otherwise it is very likely to cause severe dehydration symptoms, which will cause great harm to the human body.

In this case, when you need to replenish water, you can drink some boiled water appropriately. If conditions permit, it is best to drink light sugar and salt water. Just add a small amount of salt and sugar to boiled water. This can better ensure the balance of the human body.

However, it should be noted that when drinking sugar and salt water, it is not suitable to drink too much at one time to avoid symptoms of nausea and vomiting. It needs to be drunk in multiple times.

Stop eating

I believe that many of my friends do not know this. Some people think that when you have diarrhea, everything in your stomach is emptied. If you don’t eat anything, won’t you lose nutrition?

In fact, this is not the case, because when you have diarrhea, your stomach and intestines are very fragile, and blindly eating may make the diarrhea worse. Therefore, it is better to eat less or no food temporarily when you have diarrhea.

Rest in bed

Diarrhea often makes people feel tired and listless, so lying in bed and resting is the ideal state at this time. Never force yourself to do strenuous physical or mental activities. Allow your body to fully rest so that it can recover faster.

Diet

After symptoms of diarrhea occur and you stop eating for a day, you can now eat properly, but you still need to be very careful about your diet. You should eat light food and avoid eating spicy, greasy, fried and other irritating foods. You can eat more vegetables and fruits.

Massage Relief

When symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea occur, if there is no antidiarrheal medicine to stop the diarrhea in time, you can also use massage to relieve the symptoms of diarrhea. Of course, there are many massage methods that can effectively relieve the symptoms of diarrhea.

Abdominal massage

1. Place both palms on your abdomen, and then massage your abdomen counterclockwise. You will see the effect after massaging for about 5 minutes.

2. Place your palms together on your abdomen, and then perform light vibration and pressing on the abdomen for 1 minute. Then suddenly remove your palms. Repeat this operation about 5-10 times, which can help relieve diarrhea.
