Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a prevalent and chronic gastrointestinal disorder characterized by a combination of persistent and recurrent abdominal pain and abnormal bowel habits. The condition often presents with symptoms such as diarrhoea, constipation, or a fluctuation between the two. The pain associated with IBS typically occurs after meals and may be relieved or exacerbated following a bowel movement. In addition to abdominal discomfort, individuals with IBS may experience bloating, passage of mucus in stools, and a sensation of incomplete emptying after a bowel movement.
