Who can get diarrhea?
Diarrhea can affect anyone. Most people experience diarrhea at least once a year. It’s not a major concern for many people because it’s very common.
Diarrhea can, however, be serious for some people, including:
- Young children.
- Senior citizens (the elderly).
- Medically ill individuals.
Diarrhea can lead to other health problems for each of these people.
