People who are suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome or IBS experience mild symptoms. This is the problem because most people do not recognize IBS at first; instead, it is mistaken for a temporary digestive upset.
Here are some of the common symptoms manifested in a person with Irritable Bowel Syndrome:
- Discomfort or pain in the abdomen, specifically the lower part;
- Inconsistent bowel habits;
- Persistent diarrhea;
- Nausea, sometimes causing vomiting;
- Constipation;
- Unpredictable bloating;
- Mucus in the stools.
On the other hand, a physician can easily diagnose IBS, so if these symptoms persist, you should see a doctor promptly.
