If your digestive system works as it should, it moves food through it by squeezing and relaxing the intestine’s muscles. If you have IBS, this doesn’t happen as it should, causing the symptoms.
It isn’t known exactly what causes it but it’s a long term condition. There isn’t a cure currently, but it can usually be managed with treatment.
If you think that you have IBS, you can speak to one of our doctors for advice. They will listen to your symptoms, ask about any triggers you are aware of and tell you your next steps.
