How would you know if you're lactose intolerant or just have ibs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lactose: If your symptoms are related to lactose than those symptoms should not occur when you eat lactose- free diet. If you symptoms persist on a lactose free diet , you should see a gastroenterologist
