I am having an ibs flare up and i was asking for tips on how to ease symptoms for when a flare up happens. especially for when i have to work.

IBS: If it's IBS with cramping and diarrhea, taking an antispasmodic like dicyclomine should help. Taking it 1/2 hour before a meal can prevent a flare up. Look up a fodmap diet to learn what foods to avoid.
