10 IBS Symptoms
Symptom #2: Constipation
A person is considered to be constipated when their bowels move fewer than 3 times a week. This results in harder stools which can be harder to pass. Constipation associated with IBS can also be quite painful.
When IBS leads to constipation, the sufferer may also get the sensation of not having completed their bowel movement. Drinking plenty of water, changing your diet and exercising may help to overcome constipation. Eating yogurt may also help as it contains probiotics that encourage a healthy digestive system.
