Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a chronic gastrointestinal disorder characterized by abdominal pain, bloating, and changes in bowel habits such as constipation, diarrhea, or both. Although not life-threatening, IBS can greatly impact daily comfort and quality of life. Its symptoms are often influenced by factors such as stress, diet, hormonal fluctuations, or previous infections. Diagnosis involves ruling out other gastrointestinal conditions through a careful clinical assessment and, when necessary, targeted investigations.
Effective management of IBS focuses on reducing symptom flare-ups and improving long-term well-being through a combination of medical treatment, gut-friendly dietary adjustments—such as following a low FODMAP diet—stress reduction techniques, and lifestyle modifications. Collaboration with dietitians, mental health professionals, and gastroenterologists can help address both the physical and emotional aspects of the condition, ensuring a more comprehensive and sustainable approach to symptom control.
