What Is Irritable Bowel Syndrome?
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a fairly common problem with the way the large intestine works. The large intestine absorbs water and nutrients from the partially digested food that enters the colon from the small intestine. Anything that is not absorbed is slowly moved on a pathway out of your body. These undigested and unabsorbed food particles are also known as stool, a bowel movement, or poop.
Here's why an intestine gets "irritable." To have a bowel movement, the muscles in the colon and the rest of the body have to work together. If this process is somehow interrupted, the contents of the colon can't move along very smoothly. It sort of stops and starts, doesn't move, or sometimes moves too fast. This can hurt and make you feel awful. Doctors also believe that people with IBS may have more sensitive bowels, so what might cause a little discomfort in one person causes serious pain for someone with IBS.

It is time you consulted a physician together with your signs. I have had IBS for years. For the diarrhea there are medicinal drugs that aid. Lorapromide is an over-the-counter drug that is helping with the diarrhea. Normally you'll suppose an IBS episode approaching. Two to 3 capsules will give up it. When you're into an IBS episode three or four drugs will mild it or give up it altogether. To aid normalize your bowel activities develop your fiber consumption and drink lots of fluids. This will cross an extended approach to aid hinder IBS. Also do not forget making use of hygienic wipes after a bowel motion. IBS is a situation that can stick with you for lifestyles however making use of the above recommendations will aid mild it. It in general is a steady situation that as a way to now not worsen as you age. It is prompted by means of pressure, consuming a giant meal or bodily pressure akin to doing situps, crunches or squatting down for lengthy durations of time which places strain at the nerves (messenteric) that innervate the intestines. Good good fortune.

it is a condition experienced w severe abdominal pain/stomachache, that gets relieved when u fart or pooped. this is caused by the disturbance or problem with evacuation (like constipation and diarrhea) and bloating... u know when u have too much gas in your bowel... and yes it is not very common.. only about 15-25% has this and usually in women with the ratio of 3:1. and in most cases western countries. based on studies there is a strong relationship of the disease to anxiety and stress....thats it! and yeah avoid dairy products. this are gas forming food that often cause the symptoms...
