Restriction diet: Irritable bowel syndrome can be a real difficulty. Not only can you have exposive diarrhea but also a constipation-predominant bowel irregularity along with crampy abdominal pains in response to certain foods. Try to identify these foods and avoid them. There are several anti-spasmodics on the market to help control symptoms. You may need a combination of medications to manage pain and bowels!
