A member asked:
Would a lactose intolerance flare up last for over a week after eating a lot of dairy products over the course of 3 days? had lots of dairy last weekend & have had cramps, bloating, nausea & diarrhea for about 8 days now. noone else is ill at home...
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There is a lot of natural bacteria in our intestines that help us to digest food properly. After a diarrhea, specially due to lactose intolerance, all those bacteria are flushed out along with thousands of cells that also maintain the intestines working properly. All those bacteria and cells must recover to achieve normal function
