4 - When the lactose in milk is not broken down and absorbed, the lactose molecules exert an osmotic draw, which causes diarrhea. There is not enough information to suspect colon disease. The symptom of diarrhea after ingesting ice cream is inconsistent with small intestine inflammation. The symptom does not suggest cholera.
