Staying up late and having diarrhea

I believe many people don’t know the reason for diarrhea caused by staying up late. It is mainly because staying up late will affect the body’s endocrine disorders and cause abnormal metabolism, which will affect gastrointestinal digestion and may cause abdominal colds. Therefore, staying up late will cause diarrhea. If diarrhea occurs due to staying up late, we should correct our bad work and rest schedule and regulate our stomach and intestines in time.

Reasons for diarrhea from staying up late:

1. Indigestion

Irregular diet, overeating, and eating indigestible food will cause food to remain in the stomach, causing symptoms such as bloating, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, acid reflux, heartburn, and hiccups.

2. Cold in the abdomen

The weather is hot in the summer. Staying in an air-conditioned room for a long time, especially when sleeping with the air conditioner on, is very easy to get a cold stomach, which will increase the frequency of gastrointestinal motility and cause diarrhea.

3. Bacterial infection

If people accidentally eat food containing bacteria such as E. coli and Salmonella, or drink water contaminated by bacteria, they are likely to develop enteritis or bacillary dysentery, which will cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea and fever to varying degrees.

4. Viral infection

People often develop viral diarrhea due to unhygienic eating habits and the infection of viruses in the food they eat.

Infection with rotavirus, norovirus, coxsackievirus, echovirus and other viruses may cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, fever and general discomfort.

5. Food poisoning

There are many causes of food poisoning, such as spoiled food, contaminated water and unclean tableware.

It should be noted that in the summer, due to the high temperature and humidity, food tends to spoil faster than in other seasons. Once food poisoning occurs, the patient will show acute gastrointestinal symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and fever.
