What is "irritable bowel syndrome"?
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common digestive disorder that affects the large intestine. It causes symptoms like stomach pain, bloating, gas, diarrhea, and constipation. The exact cause of IBS is not known, but it may be related to problems with how the brain and gut interact, muscle contractions in the intestine, or infections. Stress, certain foods, and hormonal changes can trigger or worsen symptoms. While there is no cure for IBS, treatments include dietary changes, stress management, and medications to help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
