Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a chronic digestive disorder characterized by abnormal motility of the large intestine. Unlike Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), IBS is a functional gastrointestinal disorder that does not cause permanent damage to the digestive tract, though the symptoms can be life-altering. Common symptoms include belly pain, cramping, diarrhea, gas, bloating, and constipation. IBS can usually be managed through diet and lifestyle changes, although some people may require counseling and/or medication.
