Breastfeeding for at least six months is also recommended as is vaccination against rotavirus. It often lasts for a few days and can result in dehydration due to fluid loss. Prevention of infectious diarrhea is by improved sanitation, clean drinking water, and hand washing with soap. The most common cause of this type of diarrhea is a cholera toxin that stimulates the secretion of anions, especially chloride ions. It may be divided into three types: short duration watery diarrhea, short duration bloody diarrhea, and if it lasts for more than two weeks, persistent diarrhea. Secretory diarrhea means that there is an increase in the active secretion, or there is an inhibition of absorption. Signs of dehydration often begin with loss of the normal stretchiness of the skin and irritable behaviour.
Or it can be caused by osmotic laxatives (which work to alleviate constipation by drawing water into the bowels). 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, also spelled diarrhoea, is the condition of having at least three loose or liquid bowel movements each day. Oral rehydration solution (ORS), which is clean water with modest amounts of salts and sugar, is the treatment of choice. These infections are often acquired from food or water that has been contaminated by stool, or directly from another person who is infected. Osmotic diarrhea occurs when too much water is drawn into the bowels. Therefore, to maintain a charge balance in the gastrointestinal tract, sodium is carried with it, along with water. The short duration watery diarrhea may be due to an infection by cholera, although this is rare in the developed world.
