A member asked:

Normal bowel movement and then diarrhea follows for the next couple days?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

IBS: If this is a recurring problem it is consistent with irritable bowel syndrome unless you can point to specific food intolerances. Google a fodmap diet to learn what foods to avoid. Consult a gastroenterologist as needed.
