Is it normal to have at least three bowel movements a day?

Patient's question:

At least three bowel movements a day. They are all runny, with black and yellow colors. Also, constant stomach pain. This condition has lasted for over 2 years without improvement, with at least three bowel movements every day.
Past treatment history and effectiveness: No specific treatment has been sought.
What should be noted? What medications should be taken?

Doctor's answer:

From the situation you described, your nausea and vomiting are mainly caused by a viral infection. You should pay attention to rest and choose light, easily digestible foods. If necessary, have a stool test. This condition is often due to gastrointestinal dysfunction, so you can take some medication that promotes bowel movement. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, drink more water, and eat less fried food. Maintain regular bowel movements and enhance your physical fitness and nutrition.
