Does ibs cause abdominial pain and having bowel movements 16 times a day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sometimes..: Ibs is often "diarrhea predominant" but 16 times a day is higher then the norm to be due to ibs and should be investigated with stool cultures. If those are negative then a colonoscopy would be indicated.
