Suggest Treatment For Irritable Bowel Syndrome

I am going to a play with my son tonight and have had diarrhea all afternoon. I have not eaten and feel like I need to put something in my stomach. Is there something I can eat that will not aggravate my stomach more? Forgot to mention that I have been diagnosed with IBS

Hi thanks for asking question.
In diarrhea total food restriction is not recommended.
You can take semisolid diet for 2 to 3 days until symptom recover.
Fruit juices taken more.Maintain your hydration with more water.
Green leafy vegetables are helpful.Take filtered or warm water.
With resolving diarrhea , follow some of the instruction that is also helpful in irritable bowel syndrome.
Avoid gas forming food like cabbage, cauliflower,broccoli etc.
Avoid taking stress.
Avoid alcohol and if habit of smoking stop it.
Probiotics taken for short term.
If you still not improving then antibiotic needed along with stool examination and ultrasound examination as further workup.
I hope my suggestion will help you.
