Can chronic diarrhea and chronic abdominal pain be cause by the absence of good bacteria in your gut?

Yes: While the definite research is still being carried out, a trial of probiotics such as Kefir in otherwise healthy individual would be reasonable to see if the symptoms improve.

Possibly: Get a stool analysis and other indicated investigations and review with your doctor. Eating regular yogurt and perhaps taking probiotics may help. All the best.
