http://www.alternativemedicinechannel.com/irritablebowel/

Extractions: Overview Irritable bowel syndrome, also known as spastic colon, is a digestive system disorder that presents as abdominal pain, bloating, cramping, excess mucus in stools, diarrhea, and constipation. It occurs mainly in the daytime and not during sleep, although in some patients the need to defecate may awaken them early in the morning. Irritable bowel syndrome usually begins in the first three decades of life and may affect up to one-quarter of the population in industrialized countries. The exact etiology of irritable bowel syndrome is unknown, but stress, depression, hypersensitivity to certain hormones, and pressure from gas, diet, and medications may be contributing factors. The syndrome is characterized by variable changes in the frequency and strength of muscular contractions in the intestines, which are responsible for moving digested food and, ultimately, feces through the gastrointestinal tract. Changes in frequency and contraction, and a patients sensitivity to them, result in the classic symptoms of pain, diarrhea, or constipation. In most patients, irritable bowel syndrome shows a tendency toward diarrhea, constipation, or an alternation between the two. Diagnosis usually is made after these symptoms have occurred for at least 3 months. Patients with these symptoms should have a complete examination to rule out diseases with similar symptoms, such as bacterial overgrowth, endometriosis, lactose intolerance, and celiac disease.

Extractions: General Features History . Patients often describe a long history of chronic or intermittent diarrhea, which usually starts before age 50 and is exacerbated by anxiety or stress. Diarrhea is often worse in the morning and after meals. These patients often complain of a sensation of incomplete evacuation, distention, passage of mucus, or associated abdominal, pelvic, and back pain. Pain is relieved by evacuation. Alternating constipation, diarrhea, and bloating is typical. Diarrhea is not bloody unless accompanied by an anorectal lesion such as hemorrhoids or a fissure. Systemic symptoms or weight loss are not present. Nutritional status is not compromised. Proposed criteria for diagnosis of IBS are found in Box 5-1 Etiology . The following factors are believed to play a mechanistic role in IBS and more than one may operate in a given individual: (1) abnormal motility, (2) abnormal visceral perception, (3) psychologic factors, (4) luminal compounds (lactose, short chain fatty acids, food allergens, and bile acids), which may irritate the bowel.

Extractions: irritable bowel syndrome By Eileen McLaughlin, RN, BSN Images (click to view larger image) Irritable bowel syndrome, or IBS, is a condition characterized by abdominal cramping, bloating, gas, and other changes in the bowels. 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 signs and symptoms of the condition? Symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome may include: abdominal distress that is often relieved with a bowel movement bloating, or feeling like the stomach is inflated excess gas changes in stool. Some people with IBS may have painful, loose stools, or diarrhea , while others may have painful hard stools, or constipation . Some people may alternate between diarrhea and constipation. the sensation that there is still more stool in the bowel immediately following a bowel movement mucus in the stool anxiety, frustration, or

Extractions: Of all intestinal disorders diagnosed by physicians throughout the United States, Irritable Bowel Syndrome is by far the most common. Many of those afflicted, however, remain reluctant to seek help from their physician, in the mistaken belief that nothing can be done about it. Wrong! This most prevalent of intestinal disorders is controllable. Above all, the physician will dispel any misgivings that the patient may have about seeking help. The unfortunate myth that Irritable Bowel Syndrome is "all in the mind" is one of the most frequent reasons given by patients for delaying or failing to obtain treatment. Your physician can and will reassure you that IBS is one of the most common intestinal disorders seen in gastroenterology today and, more importantly, that it
