Brief Answer:
ibs exacerbations

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking

The trouble and the answer to it lies in your history. Functional bowel diseases like IBS when associated with acute diarrhea episodes or gastroenteritis then it worsens and exacerbates.

Gastric inflammation aka gastritis may accompany as a result of this episode and might need a little ant acids help.

Rest it's due to its and we all know ibs needs a complete management from diet and lifestyle to medications.



More fibres, less fats and carbohydrates, small meals of frequent durations that few larger ones, use of healthy lifestyle and exercise, losing weight if an issue, controlling lipid profile in a limit and compliantly using hypertensive medicines and staying in touch with your doctor is advised.

Fiber supplementation improve symptoms of constipation and diarrhea.  Polycarbophil compounds (eg, Citrucel, FiberCon) may produce less flatulence than psyllium compounds (eg, Metamucil).


Judicious water intake is recommended and should be followed. Minimum of 2 litres in a day is advised.


Caffeine avoidance may limit anxiety and symptom exacerbation. Legume avoidance may decrease abdominal bloating. Lactose and/or fructose should be limited or avoided Take care to supplement calcium in patients limiting lactose intake.


Gluten intolerance has been further associated with irritable bowel syndrome. so try gluten free diet and see if it helps.

   Meanwhile some prokinetics like metoclopramide and domperidone and erythromycins would keep the propelling work and make the bloating less but it needs a work up as i mentioned to sort out.

Take some Antispasmodics and antacids for the relief meanwhile.

  Seek a gastroenterologist for further management.

I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and don't forget to close the discussion please.

May the odds be ever in your favour.
