Pain is very personal and individual with no two people experiencing it in the same way. It can be a very unpleasant experience. We often think of pain as a purely physical sensation but the pain has biological, psychological and emotional factors too. especially if it continues for a long time as it can begin to affect all aspects of your life, including work, your personal relationships with family and friends, and your sleep and activity levels. How would your quality of life improve if you could manage your pain and reduce any discomfort?

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common functional disorder of the gut. (The gut includes the bowels.) A functional disorder means there is a problem with the function of a part of the body, but there is no abnormality in the structure. So, in IBS, the function of the gut is upset, but all parts of the gut look normal, even when looked at under a microscope. IBS causes various symptoms. Up to 1 in 5 people in the UK develop IBS at some stage in their life. IBS can affect anyone at any age, but it commonly first develops in young adults and teenagers. IBS is twice as common in women as in men. Pain and discomfort may occur in different parts of the abdomen. . The pain often eases when you pass stools (motions or faces) or wind. Many people with IBS describe the pain as a spasm or colic. The severity of the pain can vary from mild to severe, both from person to person and from time to time in the same person. Bloating and swelling of your abdomen may develop from time to time. You may pass more wind than usual.
