Three Possible Causes of IBS ( irritable bowel syndrome)

These include possibilities such as smooth muscle abnormalities, altered small intestinal mobility, or a sensory condition causing normal mobility of the gut to feel strange and abnormal to a person. However, no real evidence has been found to support any of these explanations. It is in fact often the case that IBS sufferers are thought of as hypochondriacs without any real problem, and doctors who hold this belief tend to almost disregard their patients' gastrointestinal complaints.

Initial treatment for painful diverticular disease involves adding fiber to the diet and eliminating any foods that cause gas, pain, or other symptoms. Treatment is the same as that for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), because many people who have this condition also have IBS. For information on the treatment of IBS, see the topic Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).

The surge of bacteria would be present in the small intestine, as one researcher publishing in the Journal of the American Medical Association has proposed. The proposal suggested that ordinary bacteria normally found in the large intestine may end up in the small intestine giving rise to the characteristic symptoms of IBS; uncomfortable bloating and gas and a change in bowel movements, together with muscle and joint pain, chronic fatigue and headaches which are sometimes found in sufferers. There may be 100 trillion bacteria in the gut, but they are usually scarce in the small intestine, so an increase in bacteria here may account for the symptoms of IBS.

causes abdominal pain and cramping, especially on the left side. However, there is no fever or other sign of inflammation. The symptoms of and treatment for painful diverticular disease are the same as for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). In fact, many doctors think that a person with painful diverticular disease actually has both diverticulosis and IBS. For rmation, see the topic Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

It is often suggested that stress, anxiety and depression cause IBS, but thinking is now more along the lines that these psychological maladies only exacerbate the symptoms rather than bring them on. Research has found the colon muscle of someone with IBS is more sensitive than that of a non-sufferer, which means that IBS sufferers have strong reactions to stimuli that would not affect others. It is also suggested that hormones may influence symptoms, as women generally have more symptoms of IBS when menstruating.

The symptoms of painful diverticular disease are the same as those of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), including diarrhea and cramping abdominal pain, with no fever or other sign of an infection. For information on the symptoms of IBS, see the topic Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).

Algae Based Fuels A third possible cause of IBS is food intolerance. Although caffeine and alcohol are generally found to aggravate IBS, different individuals may find they have 'trigger' foods which vary widely. Sometimes this can be found out by trial and error in diet, but it is only possible to confirm food intolerance by blood testing for antibodies. Once the foods are identified by the test, they can be cut out of the diet, leading to an improvement in IBS symptoms. It is even the case that after a time, the foods which were previously a problem can be phased back into the diet as the immune system appears to reset itself in the interim. Food intolerance testing kits are available from some pharmacies to make it easier to identify problem foods that may provoke the symptoms of IBS.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common ailments of the bowel (intestines) and affects an estimated 15% of persons in the US. The term, irritable bowel, is not a particularly good one since it implies that the bowel is responding irritably to normal stimuli, and this may or may not be the case. The several names for IBS, including spastic colon, spastic colitis, and mucous colitis, attest to the difficulty of getting a descriptive handle on the ailment. Moreover, each of the other names is itself as problematic as the term IBS.
