Dear Jyoti, Thank you for the question

IBS is characterized by a variety of chronic symptoms that include abdominal pain, an alteration in bowel habits, constipation, Diarrhoea and flatulence. IBS can be managed by eliminating some exacerbating factors such as certain drugs, stressor conditions and changes in dietary habits. Gastrointestinal digestive issues such as IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) requires medical attention along with lifestyle management including dietary modifications.

Certain food intolerances can cause bloating, gastritis, diarrhoea, constipation etc. after consuming specific foods. In lactose intolerance it is seen after consuming milk and milk products like cheese, paneer etc. And in gluten intolerance (celiac disease or gluten sensitive enteropathy) it is seen after consuming, wheat, rye, barley etc

For further diagnosis and assistance kindly contact your specialized health care professional or a Gastroenterologist.
