Loose or watery stools (diarrhoea)
Loose or watery stools (diarrhoea) means passing unformed stools more frequently than normal, often with urgency. It can lead to dehydration if prolonged. Ayurveda views this as an imbalance in Agni (digestive fire) and treats it with digestive-restoring herbs and dietary modifications.
