Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a condition of both the mind and the body. Stress can create symptoms of IBS and these symptoms are more prevalent in females. There may be certain foods that increase the symptoms of IBS like pulses, vegetables and fried food. However there are also many other causes of IBS but the exact reason can sometimes be difficult to determine. The symptoms of IBS can also be varied. People may have issues with excess wind, trapped wind, constipation, diarrhoea and some people have a combination of these symptoms. Along with this people may have abdominal pain and cramps, as well as bloating. For a person suffering with IBS the condition can be very difficult to manage as well as embarrassing if they suffer from excess wind. Individuals have to manage their diet and lifestyle to keep the symptoms under control, however homeopathy offers a solution which eventually allows people to follow a varied diet without the symptoms of IBS.
Reflux and Indigestion are also disorders related to the digestive system which can be difficult to manage. Some people get heart burn after meals, which is a burning sensation in the oesophagus. This can be very uncomfortable and usually gets worse if untreated. Conventional medicines simply suppress these symptoms which then return as soon as the person eats the trigger food. With homeopathy the aim is to treat the individual so that they can eat the food that triggers the heartburn without any symptoms.
