Irritable bowel syndrome

intestino-irritabile-e1571859271697

Irritable bowel syndrome is a common disorder affecting the large intestine.

This is a chronic condition that must be managed for the long term.

Only a small number of people with irritable bowel syndrome have severe signs and symptoms.
Some people can control their symptoms by managing diet, lifestyle and stress.

Irritable bowel syndrome does not cause changes in intestinal tissue and does not increase the risk of colorectal cancer.
