Diet important: Bloating occurs in nearly all patients with irritable bowel syndrome, and it also occurs in patients with functional and organic disorders. Effective treatments are limited and are not universally successful. GI generally follow a stepwise approach, formulating the treatment plan with the patient in order to improve compliance. Symptoms, although uncomfortable and frustrating, but usually benign.
