Intestinal bowel syndrome
Intestinal Bowel Syndrome, more commonly known as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), is a chronic condition that affects the large intestine.
It is characterized by a group of symptoms that typically occur together, including repeated pain in the abdomen and changes in bowel movements, which may include diarrhea, constipation, or both.
The exact cause of IBS is not known, but it is believed to be related to a combination of abnormal gastrointestinal tract movements, increased awareness of bodily functions, and a disruption in the communication between the brain and the gut.
Stress, diet, and other environmental factors can also play a significant role in triggering symptoms.
Common symptoms of IBS include abdominal pain or cramping, bloating, gas, diarrhea, and constipation.
These symptoms can vary in intensity and duration from person to person, and they often come and go over time.
Some individuals may experience severe symptoms that significantly impact their quality of life, while others may have milder symptoms that are more manageable.
It is important to seek medical advice if you experience persistent or severe symptoms, as IBS can sometimes be confused with other more serious conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or celiac disease.
A proper diagnosis is crucial to ensure appropriate treatment and management of the condition.
