Hi,

Symptoms of IBS include intestinal infections/infestations, food allergies (gluten/lactose),... these need to be found & treated by expert advise of a gastroenterologist.

Some drinks like alcohol, caffeine with carbonated soda, chocolate, artificial sweeteners, milk products, or excess of fibers & fats in food... You need to be observation their effect &exclude those which are triggering.

Apart from this psychological stress & tension have an adverse effect... so need to be managed by psychotherapy/mind concentration exercises like meditation & positive thinking.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale,
