'''Diarrhea''' or '''diarrhoea''' is the condition of having at least three loose or liquid bowel movements each day. It often lasts for a few days and can result in [[dehydration]] due to fluid loss. Signs of dehydration often begin with loss of the normal stretchiness of the skin and changes in personality. This can progress to decreased urination, loss of skin color, a fast heart rate, and a decrease in responsiveness as it becomes more severe. | '''Diarrhea''' or '''diarrhoea''' is the condition of having at least three loose or liquid bowel movements each day.
