Dealing with sudden bowel changes can create an embarrassing situation. Particularly for those individuals dealing with conditions such as Crohn's or irritable bowel syndrome, the urgent need to "go" can arise in a moment.

An article in the Des Moines Register writes about public access to employee-only bathrooms. Apparently a constituent had experienced a sudden need while out shopping, and was denied access to an employee bathroom. She then went to her state senator, looking to get legislation passed requiring stores to allow the public to use their restrooms.

I'm not sure that this is exactly the best use of the Iowa legislature's time, but it is one way to address the problem. A more effective way, though, would be to address the bowel changes that create such sudden urges. Diarrhea symptoms can arise from contaminated food, but more often they arise from a disturbed environment in the digestive tract.

Preventing diarrhea isn't that hard if you know ahead of time that it may be a problem for you. Dr. Williams has numerous diarrhea treatments and suggestions for dealing with diarrhea causes and preventing the problem from appearing in the first place.
