Dr. Michael Moffa answered

Specializes in Colon and Rectal Surgery

IBS: Likely constipation predominant irritable bowel syndrome. Start by taking a fiber supplement daily and drinking enough fluids. If the constipation resolves but the pain persists i would then look at your gallbladder with an ultrasound.
