I Have Digestion Problem
Question: Digestion problem (Gas, Acidity, IBS)
Brief Answer:
Hope you have good health
Detailed Answer:
Hello, thank you for your question and I hope I could be of help to you today. IBS is a condition that causes belly pain and problems with bowel movements. Some people with the condition have frequent, watery bowel movements and diarrhea. The symptoms include: stomach pain and cramps, related to a bowel movement, diarrhea or constipation, bloating, gas.
You can do things to help you to feel better. Start a diary to keep track of what you ate each day, what you did, and how you felt. That way, you can figure out if anything you do or eat makes your symptoms better or worse. You should eat fiber food if you are constipated and be active by doing exercise 2 to 5 times per week. There are some medicines to ease the symptoms of IBS. Counseling might also help with IBS, because stress and worry can make the condition worse.
Please let me know if you need any clarification. If you have any more questions I am available to discuss them with you further. Wishing you good health.
Best regards,
Dr. Heang Raksmey, General and Family Physician
Hope you have good health
