What Causes Diarrhea? - The Dr. Binocs Show | Best Learning Videos For Kids | Peekaboo Kidz

Oh! Hello kids. Excuse me please. Sorry friends, today I don't feel right. As I have a severe stomach ache. I think I am suffering from diarrhoea again. Just like I experienced years ago, when I was baby Binox. So let me take you back in time. And tell you about my battle with this awful disease called diarrhoea. Excuse me and please zoom in. It was one of my best friend's birthday party. And we were having a blast. The environment was energetic. And the house was filled with various food items. Which was sweet, salty and spicy. I hogged like a wild animal and left his home with great memories. But shortly after, the sweet dream turned into a nightmare. As I started to feel the effect, as soon as I reached my house. And I began to feel nauseous. Followed by vomiting, fever and severe pain in my stomach. And the worst part was to run to the bathroom regularly. And pass thin and watery poop. Making me feel weak and dehydrated. I called my doctor and after listening to all the symptoms, he said. It's just a bad case of diarrhoea. But the question is, what is diarrhoea and what causes it? Diarrhoea is a condition in which poop is frequently discharged from the bowels. In a wet, watery, sticky form. And is commonly known as loose motions. It is usually caused by gastrointestinal infections. Induced by viruses and bacteria. Which are often picked up from contaminated food. And parasites spread in contaminated water. Sometimes diarrhoea can be due to a non-infectious disease as well. Especially if it lasts several weeks or longer. Trivia Time! Did you know that people with diarrhoea caused by certain infections. Can lose up to 20 litres of fluids per day? So friends, now when we know about the causes and effects. Of this unbearable disease called diarrhoea. Let us now learn the ways to tackle this running battle. Fortunately, diarrhoea often goes away on its own. So treatment isn't usually needed. But over-the-counter medications can offer some relief from symptoms to adults. But for children, it's often recommended consulting your doctor. Before taking any medicines. Consuming yogurt may help people heal from diarrhoea faster. The live, natural, friendly bacteria in some yogurt. May help boost healthy digestion. Avoiding fatty foods may also help to reduce the effects of diarrhoea. As they are hard to digest. But as they say, prevention is better than cure. So washing your hands is still the best way to fight the germs that cause diarrhoea. As it can cut the transmission of infectious diarrhoea by almost 40%. So, use soap and water and scrub as long as it takes you to sing the alphabet song. So, here we go friends. Hope we gained adequate knowledge about this troubling disease. That stops us from consuming our favourite food. And live our life to the fullest. But the most important thing I learnt from this experience. Is that laughter is the best medicine. Unless you have diarrhoea. Excuse me. This is me zooming out. Hey kids, you liked my videos, didn't you? Before you go, don't forget to click on the subscribe button and the bell.
