Irritable Bowel Syndrome Care by Dr. Yashavanth H S

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common functional gastrointestinal disorder that affects the large intestine. It is a chronic condition characterized by abdominal discomfort and altered bowel habits. Although IBS does not cause permanent damage to the intestines, proper diagnosis and long-term management are essential for symptom control and improved quality of life.

Common Symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome

IBS symptoms can vary from person to person and may fluctuate over time. Common symptoms include abdominal pain or cramping, bloating, excessive gas, diarrhea, constipation, or alternating episodes of both, a sensation of incomplete bowel evacuation, and mucus in stools. Symptoms often worsen with stress or certain foods.

When to Consult a Doctor ?

You should consult a specialist if bowel symptoms persist for several weeks, interfere with daily activities, or do not improve with lifestyle changes. Immediate medical attention is recommended if symptoms are associated with unexplained weight loss, blood in stools, anemia, or severe abdominal pain, as these may indicate other conditions.

Advantages of Early and Proper Treatment

Early and appropriate treatment of IBS helps control symptoms, reduce flare-ups, and improve digestive comfort. Proper management includes dietary modifications, stress management, and personalized medical therapy, allowing patients to maintain a better quality of life and long-term symptom relief.
