Frequent loose motions after eating outside food, especially when the stools are not entirely watery, typically point toward Food Poisoning or Gastroenteritis (infection of the digestive tract). Since your symptoms have lasted for a week, it indicates that either a bacterial or parasitic pathogen is irritating your intestinal lining. Your stool routine and culture reports are essential to differentiate between a simple infection and something more persistent like Amoebiasis
Next Steps
Hydration (ORS): Even if stools aren't watery, you are losing electrolytes. Drink ORS or coconut water throughout the day.
Probiotics: Start a good probiotic supplement or have fresh curd/yogurt. This helps restore the 'good bacteria' in your gut that was destroyed by the infection.
Bland Diet (BRAT): Stick to Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, and Toast. Avoid oily, spicy, and dairy products (except curd) until your stools normalize.
Prescription: Once I review the details of your attached Stool Routine report, I can prescribe the specific antibiotic or anti-protozoal medication required to clear the infection.
Health Tips
Need some more history from your side to give you better treatment plan so do connect and consult
