Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), also known as spastic colon, spastic colitis, mucous colitis, or nervous stomach, is a common disorder that may affect over 15% of the general population. IBS shouldn’t be confused with other bowel diseases like ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease because it is a functional disorder in which the bowels may function abnormally but there are no structural abnormalities.
In people with IBS, the intestines squeeze too hard or not hard enough, causing food to move too quickly or too slowly through the intestines. IBS is a disorder of function, meaning that the bowel does not function, as it should. If one visualizes the bowel, it appears perfectly normal without any inflammation or other structural changes.
CAUSES OF IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME
The nervous control of the gastrointestinal tract is complex, with a network of nerves running the entire length from the esophagus to the anus in the muscular walls of the organs. It is thought that IBS is caused by abnormal function (dysfunction) of the muscles of the organs of the gastrointestinal tract or the nerves controlling the organs.
