Viral Diarrhea

Viral diarrhea is a common condition often caused by viruses such as norovirus or rotavirus. It leads to frequent watery stools, abdominal cramps, and sometimes vomiting. The infection typically spreads through contaminated food, water, or surfaces and is more common in crowded places, especially during the winter months. Most cases are mild and resolve on their own within a few days. Staying hydrated is crucial, as diarrhea can lead to dehydration. In severe cases, especially in young children or the elderly, medical attention may be necessary. Practicing good hygiene can help prevent its spread.
