It is characterized by a disruption of the normal pattern of muscular contractions that move waste through the intestines. The result is either diarrhea or constipation or alternating bouts of both.

Your health care provider will gather additional information, face to face, with questions and perhaps with tests. S/he can then narrow down your symptoms to a specific diagnosis. If you live with your family, perhaps your pediatrician is a place to start, since s/he is trained to see people from birth until age 21.

Sometimes IBS is confused with inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis .
