What Is The Cause And Treatment For IBS?

I haven't been officially diagnosed, but I probably have IBS. I have no stress & I haven't been able to attribute symptoms to any particular foods. I eat basically the same things but don't have problems all the time. My biggest issue in the last few years is that I will get a sudden "attack" of gas (it feels like a balloon in my guy) sometimes with diarrhea. It can happen at any time out of the blue. What can cause that? If it IS food related how do I know which meal is the cause? The most recent? 12 hours ago? 24 hours?

Hello & Welcome To HCM,

I had gone through the case and found that both symptoms might be associated with intestinal bowel syndrome.

So find out the exact cause of intestinal bowel syndrome.

-Brain-Gut Signal Problems.
-GI Motor Problems.
-Mental Health Problems.
-Bacterial Gastroenteritis.
-Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth.
-Body Chemicals.
-Food Sensitivity.

Some investigation might be help to diagnose the problem-

1-Blood test for infection.
2-Stool Test.
3-GI series test through the X-ray of large intestine.
4-Flexible sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy of large intestine and rectum.

Treatment can help you to get rid of problem-

-Changes in eating, diet, and nutrition
- Medications
- Probiotics
-Therapies for mental health problems

So go for the correct diagnosis through the test and take proper treatment.

Hope my answer will be effective for you.

Thanks,
