what causes diarrhea at night while sleeping
Some people suffer from chronic diarrhea caused by a chronic disease. Diarrhea is often caused by a virus, bacterial infection or parasite, but it can also be a symptom of a disease or syndrome. Nocturnal diarrhea is diarrhea that occurs at night, usually when the patient is asleep. This usually signifies a more serious condition. Nocturnal diarrhea is most often due to inflammatory bowel diseases, such as infectious colitis and Crohn's disease, or to the effects of diabetic autonomic neuropathy.
