AB  - Diarrhea  is  an  increased  frequency  and  decreased  consistency  of  fecal  discharge  as  compared  with  an  individual’s  normal  bowel  pattern.  Diarrhea  can  be  thought  of  as  both  a  symptom  and  a  sign  of  a  systemic  disease.Acute  diarrhea  is  commonly  defined  as  shorter  than  14  days’  duration,  persistent  diarrhea  as  longer  than  14  days’  duration,  and  chronic  diarrhea  as  longer  than  30  days’  duration.  Most  cases  of  acute  diarrhea  are  caused  by  infections  with  viruses,  bacteria,  or  protozoa,  and  are  generally  self-limited.
