Some people with IBS have constipation (difficult or infrequent bowel movements); others have diarrhea (frequent loose stools, often with an urgent need to move the bowels); and some people experience both. Sometimes the person with IBS has a crampy urge to move the bowels but cannot do so. Through the years, IBS has been called by many namescolitis, mucous colitis, spastic colon, spastic bowel, and functional bowel disease. Most of these terms are inaccurate. Colitis, for instance, means inflammation of the large intestine (colon). IBS, however, does not cause inflammation and should not be confused with another disorder, ulcerative colitis.

55. The Three Main Variants Of IBS: Spastic Colon Patients with spastic colon experience pain, often acute and piercing, in thelower abdomen spastic colon is a debilitating and often chronic condition. http://www.ibs-research-update.org.uk/ibs/sc1ie4.html

Spastic Colon Patients with spastic colon experience pain, often acute and piercing, in the lower abdomen slightly above the genitalia. This can pass quickly, the onset of pain being associated with the passage of looser than normal stools, abdominal distension (bloating), an unsatisfactory bowel habit (defaecating then immediately feeling the need to go again) and mucus in the stool. Sometimes, as described earlier, there is a frequency of bowel action while at other times patients are constipated. Spastic colon is a debilitating and often chronic condition. Main Symptoms: Visible abdominal distention (bloating) Pain relieved by bowel action More frequent stools with onset of pain Rectal passing of mucus Sensation of incomplete evacuation In our experience, pain in this, the commonest variant of IBS, is likely to be due to abnormalities of contractility or motility of the colon and smooth muscle relaxants or antispasmodics are often effective. Examples are: Mebeverine hydrochloride (eg Colofac) Merbentyl Peppermint oil eg Equilon herbal,Colpermin.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) Irritable Bowel Syndrome, sometimes referred to as "spastic colon"is characterized by cramps, gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea or both constipation and diarrhea alternately. The cause of IBS is unknown and it is not due to structural abnormalities. IBS may be exacerbated by stress or certain foods or beverages, such as alcohol, coffee, chocolate or dairy products. Most individuals are surprised to learn they are not alone with symptoms of IBS. In fact, Irritable Bowel Syndrome affects approximately 15-20% of the general population. It is the most common disease diagnosed by gastroenterologists (doctors who specialize in medical treatment of disorders of the stomach and intestines) and one of the most common disorders seen by all physicians. Irritable Bowel Syndrome is not caused by structural, biochemical, or infectious abnormalities. Rather, IBS is considered a dysregulation, or abnormality of brain-bowel function. There is increased pain sensitivity and abnormal motility (increased or irregular muscular movement of the intestines). In IBS, one may alternately have diarrhea and constipation. Diarrhea comes from an increased rate of passage of stool through the colon. Constipation is the result of a decreased speed of stool passing through the colon. Spasms, which are very strong contractions, also occur in IBShence the name spastic colon.
