Irritable bowel disease (IBD) is a common psychosomatic disorder that affects the gastrointestinal system, with symptoms that include cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, flatulence, and diarrhea or constipation, or both. If left untreated, it turns into chronic IBS. It can be controlled by adjusting the diet, changing the lifestyle. More severe symptoms include weight loss, diarrhea at night, bleeding from the rectum, anemia due to iron deficiency, unexplained vomiting, and pain that persists even after passing gas or having a bowel movement. It can be treated with medication and counseling. no specific treatment has been found for IBS.
