Loose motion can be due to bowel infection or some times drug induced.The most important aspect is to take plenty of oral liquids / ORS powder 2-3 teaspoon in one glass of Luke warm water for 3-4 times a day.Probiotics help a lot in this respect. There are certain anti secretory medicines and antibiotics used to combact intractable diarrhoea. Chronic diarrhoea happens mainly due irritable bowel syndrome which has a totally different line of management.Be on semisolid / liquid diet. Feel free to ask any further quary related to this
Next Steps
Jaundice leads to high coloured urine. white stool happens in obstructive jaundice, but should be accompanied by high coloured urine.
