What’s the definition of diarrhoea?

Hi all. I empty my bowel once daily, at the same time every day. However the last week or so, my stools have been quite loose. It’s not watery and it’s only once per day. 

Is this classed as diarrhoea?  Thanks.

Diarrhoea would be multiple. watery bowel movements in a day accompanied by stomach cramps.

Hi james58743

Diahorrea is fecal matter being discharged from the bowel in liquid form throughout the day for several days depending on what sort of diahorrea you have..there is viral diahorrea, food poisoning diahoreea, or diarrhoea caused by other means..so there are various types. If not watery it is not diahorrea...best wishes...
