IBS...: IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) is very common and can present with left sided abdominal pain and bowel urgency and loose frequent stools. Various foods and beverages, hormonal changes and anxiety can all trigger the symptoms. If you experience severe abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, nausea or vomiting, changes in appetite or weight, see a doctor. Good luck!
