A member asked:
Why does diarrhea cause burning sometimes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diarrhea: Whatever is causing the inflammation in the gut leading to diarrhea may be damaging the lining of the bowel such that it becomes tender and painful to defecate. This may also be caused by continuous wiping of the anus so that the skin/mucous membranes are abraded and this produces a burning sensation.
