Irritable Bowel Syndrome Symptoms

Irritable Bowel Syndrome symptoms depend on the severity of the case, but the patient is usually afflicted with constant bouts of diarrhea, constipation or both. Sufferers have an abdominal pain often times accompanied by gassiness and abdominal cramps. These feelings usually cease once the person has a bowel movement.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome Symptoms include:

  • Heartburn
  • Nausea
  • Bloating
  • Abdominal fullness or discomfort
  • Pain in the lower abdomen
  • Diarrhea or constipation

About 25 to 45 million Americans have IBS, as it is commonly known, and most of those sufferers are women. IBS is a gastrointestinal disorder which causes those who have it to experience gut-wrenching pain. Some have described the abdominal pain as knife-like.

The level of pain and the frequency someone experiences irritable bowel syndrome symptoms like bloating, gas, cramps, diarrhea and constipation varies for each patient.  About 75 percent of those with IBS have mild irritable bowel syndrome symptoms, 25 percent have moderate symptoms while five percent have the worst cases of the disorder.

A cause for the syndrome is unknown but doctors have a few possible ways to treat it, starting with a diet. Doctors must evaluate the patient’s medical history, current diet and stress level, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Sufferers should stay away from foods like beans, cabbage and other hard-to-digest foods. Fructose, a sugar found in fruits, should be ingested in small quantities.
