Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) affects the large intestine. Its symptoms—abdominal discomfort, bloating, constipation, and diarrhoea—can vary in intensity and frequency.IBS causes are unknown; however, genetic, environmental, and psychological factors are suspected. IBS may be caused by aberrant intestinal muscle contractions or brain-gut communication abnormalities, according to some studies.A family history of IBS, trauma, and stress are risk factors for IBS. Foods and drugs may also cause IBS symptoms.
IBS symptoms vary by individual and might include:
  1. Abdominal discomfort or pain
  2. Bloating, gas
  3. Stool mucus, diarrhoea, or both
  4. Unfinished bowel movement
  5. The urgency to go to the bathroom
  6. Stress, diet, and other variables may cause IBS symptoms to come and go.
IBS is diagnosed based on symptoms and medical history. To rule out other illnesses with comparable symptoms, blood, stool, or imaging tests may be done.
IBS has no cure but may be controlled with medication and treatment. Most IBS patients may live normal, busy lives without severe symptoms with adequate care. Malnutrition, dehydration, and despair are more severe symptoms of IBS.
Neurotherapy treatment improves the gut-brain connection. This treatment improves the brain-gut connection. It also reduces naval displacement, which causes IBS.
