Could Constipation And Diarrhea Be Due To IBS,and What Can Be Done For Kidney And Bladder Infection?
My daughter is only 15 years old and she has been having problems with bladder and kidney infections since she in the third grade. The doctors think she might have innerstitial cystitis. She pees every 5 minutes and and has a lot of pain and burning in her bladder and her kidneys. She was checked for a kidney and bladder it was negative. She has a lot of constipation and diarrhea. I think she might have IBS. I have a lot of research on leaky gut syndrome and she has a lot of the symptoms. She has to have some tests done to find out what is going on. These doctors just seem to be dragging their feet. We are very desperate please us thank you Nicole teague
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You can consult a urologist and do a cystoscopy and a biopsy to rule out any infection in the bladder like cystitis. IBS can cause altered Bose habits but does not cause cutititis or urinary symptoms. Avoid oily foods and add fiber rich food in her diet for smoothen her bowel movements.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
