IBS

Altered bowel habits: Diarrhea, constipation and/or alternating diarrhea and constipation

IBS -Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Subtypes of IBS

IBS-C IBS-D Unsubtyped IBS

Patient reports that abnormal bowel movements are usually diarrhea

IBS-D

A 40 y/o woman comes to your office with a several-year hx of lower abdominal pain associated with constipation (one hard bowel movement every 3 days) and frequent mucous discharge. She states that her abdominal pain is better after a bowel movement. She has never passed blood per rectum. She describes no fever, chills, weight loss or gain, jaundice, or any other symptoms. There is no relationship between the abdominal pain and specific food intake. on physical examination, the abdomen is scaphoid, and no hepatosplenomegaly or masses are palpated. There is a mild generalized abdominal tenderness, but it does not localize.
