Experiencing frequent watery loose motions that are difficult to control suggests Acute Secretory Diarrhea, likely due to a viral or bacterial enterotoxin. While you have started probiotics, they take time to stabilize the gut flora. The immediate concern in such cases is not just the infection, but the rapid loss of water and electrolytes, which leads to dehydration and weakness. Whether you need IV fluids depends on your 'Hydration Status'—if you can drink and retain liquids, oral rehydration is often sufficient
Next Steps
Need some more history from your side so do connect and consult with me for better Management and advice......
Watery diarrhea needs fast action on hydration to prevent weakness. Please book a full session so we can stop the motions and get you back on your feet.
Health Tips
Strict Diet: "Follow a strict BRAT diet (Banana, Rice, Apple sauce, Toast). Avoid milk, tea, coffee, and spicy foods, as these can irritate the bowel and worsen the diarrhea."
Home Remedy: "Buttermilk (Chaas) with a pinch of salt and roasted cumin is excellent for both hydration and soothing the gut."
Caution: "Do NOT take anti-motility drugs (like Loperamide) without a doctor's advice, as they can sometimes trap the infection inside and lead to complications like bloating or toxic megacolon."
Red Flags: "Seek emergency care if you notice decreased urine output, extreme thirst, dry mouth, or if you become very lethargic."

Most episodes like this improve well with timely care, so please don’t panic 👍
Since the motions are very frequent and difficult to control, a proper consultation would help assess dehydration risk and decide whether you need only oral treatment or further support. Early evaluation usually helps recovery much faster.
