Frequent passing of loose stools can be a sign of diarrhea. You can try taking Electral or ORS solution to prevent dehydration. Additionally, you can take Imodium to help control the frequency of bowel movements. If the symptoms persist, it's important to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.
