What Are the Causes of Chronic Diarrhea Symptoms?
The digestive system consists of a series of hollow organs, including the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum and anus, along with organs that contribute to the process of digestions, including the liver, gall bladder and pancreas. Malfunctions within the digestive system can cause the symptom of diarrhea, or loose, watery and frequent stools, which doctors classify as chronic when it occurs for more than four weeks, according to MedlinePlus.
