Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. I understand your concern. IBS cause including abdominal pain and changes in the pattern of bowel movements without any evidence of underlying damage. I would suggest to consult the authorized gastroenterologist and take proper treatment.

Following treatment will helpful:

Tablet imodium for dairrhea
Tablet dicyclomine
Tablet imipramine at bedtime
Tablet rifaxim, capsule sporolac.
Sublingual tablet of Vitamin B12 and folic acid

Take soluble fiber like senna. Take small frequent meal rather than large meal. Drink plenty of water (4 to 5 L/day). Avoid spicy/oily/fatty food, take more yogurt and butter milk. Do regular exercise like walking, running, 45 minutes in the morning followed by meditation for 20 minutes. Avoid stress.

Hope I have answered your query. Contact further if follow up needed.

Best regards,
Dr. Sagar
