A member asked:
Complaints of abdominal pain soon after taking food and relieved by bowel movements..stool consistency is normal but presence of mucus in it, what may?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Abdominal pain: Your symptoms appears to irritable bowel syndrome (ibs). However, before we can conclude this is the problem, you might want to discuss more in details with your physician(s) to exclude other causes. If you truly have ibs, you can try to change your diet. Recently, fodmaps (look it up) is a new diet we recommend to patients and seems to work well.
