| Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) |
 |
| A large number of people suffer from recurring abdominal pain and cramps for which doctors
are unable to find a specific physical cause. In many cases, pain and cramps are accompanied by a feeling of fullness,
bloating (i.e. the feeling of having the abdomen swelling to larger-than-normal size) and disturbed bowel movements, often
alternating between constipation and diarrhoea. This collection of symptoms - pain, cramps, bloating and diarrhoea/constipation
with no evident physical cause - has been given the name Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). You can learn more about IBS by
going to the IBS section of this website. |
