What is Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)?
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a long-term disorder that affects how the large intestine (colon) functions. Unlike infections or structural diseases, IBS doesn’t damage the intestines, but it causes the digestive system to behave in a sensitive or irregular way.
People with IBS often experience a mix of symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, gas, diarrhea, constipation, or an unpredictable pattern of both. These flare-ups can come and go, making everyday life uncomfortable and sometimes stressful.
IBS is usually triggered by factors like dietary habits, stress, changes in gut bacteria, or heightened sensitivity of the intestinal muscles and nerves. Though it can be frustrating, it is not life-threatening and does not increase the risk of serious conditions such as cancer.
Common Symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
- Abdominal pain or cramps: Often relieved after passing stool
- Excessive bloating and gas: A feeling of fullness or tightness in the stomach
- Changes in bowel habits: Often relieved after passing stool
- Urgency to pass stool: Sudden or frequent need to use the toilet
- Mucus in stools: A noticeable white or clear coating
- Feeling of incomplete evacuation: The sensation that the bowel hasn’t fully emptied
