Home All Health Reference Condition Guides Healthy Living ... Digestive System Intestines Anal fissures An anal fissure is a tear in the lining of the anal canal. Common causes include constipation and straining to have bowel movements. Antibiotic-associated diarrhea Antibiotics can work miracles, but they can also have side effects. The most common are mild to severe diarrhea and a serious type of colitis. Appendicitis Appendicitis occurs when the appendix becomes inflamed and filled with pus, creating potentially serious complications if not promptly treated. Blind loop syndrome Blind loop syndrome occurs when part of the intestine becomes partially blocked or bypassed. This prevents the normal flow of digested food through the affected portion. Celiac disease Celiac disease is a digestive condition resulting in poor absorption of certain nutrients. The cause is gluten, a protein found in foods containing grains.

Summers , M.D. Peer Review Status: Internally Peer Reviewed What IBS Means to Doctors Today What IBS Meant to Doctors in Times Past What IBS Means to Patients Self-Diagnosis and Self-Treatment What IBS Means to Doctors Today Diseases present themselves as symptoms and signs . Symptoms are the feelings that patients express, the sensations they experience, and the changed patterns of life they notice. Signs are the abnormalities that are evident to any trained observer. In other words, symptoms are the subjective indications of disease while signs are objective. When there are symptoms but no signs, the source of the symptoms can be hard to discover because signs usually point to the source of symptoms. For example, when a patient with the symptom of chills can be seen by everyone to have a fever and a cough and to be breathing with difficulty, it is easy to conclude that the source of his symptom is an infection in the respiratory tract. The word "syndrome" is the most important part of the term, irritable bowel syndrome. That word usually designates a set of symptoms rather than signs. This is certainly the case with IBS. It constitutes only a set of symptoms without the signs that everyone can see for himself.

Home Jackson Gastro Patient Education Irritable Bowel Syndrome What is an Irritable Bowel? Medically, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is known by a variety of other terms: spastic colon, spastic colitis, mucous colitis and nervous or functional bowel. Usually, it is a disorder of the large intestine (colon), although other parts of the intestinal tract even up to the stomach can be affected. The colon, the last five feet of the intestine, serves two functions in the body. First, it dehydrates and stores the stool so that, normally, a well-formed soft stool occurs. Second, it quietly propels the stool from the right side over to the rectum, storing it there until it can be evacuated. This movement occurs by rhythmic contractions of the colon. When IBS occurs, the colon does not contract normally. instead, it seems to contract in a disorganized, at times violent, manner. The contractions may be terribly exaggerated and sustained, lasting for prolonged periods of time. One area of the colon may contract with no regard to another. At other times, there may be little bowel activity at all. These abnormal contractions result in changing bowel patterns with constipation being most common. A second major feature of IBS is abdominal discomfort or pain. This may move around the abdomen rather than remain localized in one area.

What is going on in the body? Normally when a person eats, the stimulation of the food causes the muscles of the colon to contract. This contraction then pushes the stool toward the rectum to the outside of the body. IBS seems to cause the colon to be more sensitive to stimulation. What are the causes and risks of the condition? It is not clear what causes IBS. Emotional stress and diet, especially one high in calories and fat , seem to be some of the factors that increase the symptoms associated with IBS. Other factors include:

Prevention Description Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or spastic colon is one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders. It has also been called spastic colitis, mucus colitis or nervous colon syndrome. It tends to be a chronic disorder, and the symptoms can wax and wane over many years. Most people have such mild symptoms that they never seek medical help. The disease is a functional bowel disorder involving the large intestine. Common symptoms are abdominal pain, bloating, mucus in stools, and irregular bowel habits, such as alternating diarrhoea and constipation. The symptoms are related to abnormal muscle contractions in any part of the intestines. A spastic colon does not adversely affect longevity or lead to more serious diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease or cancer.
