Can someone tell me if this is considered diarrhea?!


Question: if I eat certain foods like oily foods or drink milk, my stomach will hurt, however if I make a bowel movement the pain goes away. Stools resulting from that are usually shapeless, not log-shaped but just one big pile kinda like a junkyard pile. I remember being told that diarrhea is like when your bowel is watery, or when it leaves your body it feels like urination but the water is all brown. I only get that maybe once or twice every few months, pretty rarely. But is shapeless stool considered diarrhea or just a result of needing to eat a more balanced diet? What is the correct description for diarrhea?

Loose bowel movement, possibly irritable bowel syndrome. Best to check with your doctor.
