Dysentery is a digestive tract infection characterized by blood or mucus-stained stool, severe colic pain, and ulcer formation. Acute or chronic dysentery can occur if not treated properly. Acute dysentery is characterized by loose motions, vomiting, and abdominal pain. The patient constantly wants to evacuate. 

All digestive processes are disrupted in dysentery, and the secretions either stop or change. Chronic cases result in severe liver damage and significant weight loss.
