Most often diarrhoea is caused by bugs in the digestive system, the body deals with them and is back to normal within 2 - 3 days. Your partner should take some Imodium and drink just plain water whilst he is feeling bad and gradually introduce food once hes feeling like eating. If it goes on any longer than 3 days, seek medical advice.
I hope hes feeling better very soon.

its rather a how long is a piece of string sort of question isn't it not knowing the exact facts but if its ordinary diarrhoea and he refrains from eating and takes plenty of fluids 2/3 days should see him OK

Should inly last 2 or 3 days. If it continues longer then go to the doc. Brat diet should ease stomach upset.
BRAT
bannanas
rice
applesauce
toast
Do not take immodium ad to stop it. You want whatever is causing it to leave your system. Drink lots of fluids to prevent dehydration
Do not take immodium ad. It will keep the bug/virus in the digestive tract longer.

Depends on how long he's been ill, tummy bugs normally last around 24 - 48 hours - Drink plenty of fluids.
Get well soon

Tell him that i also have a bum like a chocolate water pistol. He needs something to take his mind off the discomfort so i would suggest as a self taught Dr.....................Strip him and pretend to be being REALLY nice to him. Kneel down in front of him and bite his tool REALLY hard.....I bet he doesnt whinge about his diarrhoea for a long long while. Wuss

Imodium to stop the diarrhoea. either that or just eat bread it would block him up

depends on if he has a virus or just ate something bad. give him some immodium ad that would probably stop the diarrhea and make sure he goes on a bland diet..... applesauce, bananas, toast, jello, broth.... also make sure he gets plenty of fluids. stay away from soda and alcohol cos those dehydrate. if it persits go see a doctor

The smart alec answer is "when he gets well..."
Everyone is different, and it also depends on what caused him to be sick to start with...no one can truly honestly say "when"...
