IBS

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common digestive disorder that affects how your gut functions. It causes symptoms like abdominal pain, cramping, bloating, gas, diarrhea, or constipation, often fluctuating over time. Although the exact cause isn’t fully understood, IBS involves abnormal muscle movements in the intestines and heightened sensitivity to digestion. It does not cause permanent damage or increase the risk of serious disease. Managing IBS typically includes dietary changes, stress reduction, and medications to alleviate symptoms, helping improve quality of life despite its chronic nature.
