Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

7/8/2020

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common disorder that involves the large intestine. Signs and symptoms can include cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, gas, and diarrhea or constipation, or both. IBS is a chronic condition that needs to be managed long term. People with IBS can control the symptoms by managing diet, lifestyle, and stress; more-severe symptoms can be treated with medication and counseling. Daily life is greatly influenced by the way the digestive system behaves. A flare-up of symptoms can mean hours of misery.
