IBS Awareness Month highlights a common condition that can have a big impact on daily life.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) affects the digestive system and can cause a range of ongoing symptoms that may come and go.

Common symptoms include:
β€’ Stomach pain or cramping, often relieved after going to the toilet πŸ€•βœ¨
β€’ Bloating and excessive wind πŸ’¨πŸ’™
β€’ Diarrhoea, constipation or a mix of both 🚽⚠️
β€’ Changes in bowel habits πŸ“ŠπŸ©Ί

Symptoms can often be triggered by stress, certain foods or lifestyle factors. Managing IBS may involve dietary changes, staying active, reducing stress and understanding your triggers. If symptoms are persistent or worsening, it’s important to speak to your GP to rule out other conditions. πŸ’™πŸŒΏβœ¨

Bowel Cancer Awareness Month is a reminder of how important screening is, even if you feel well.

The NHS bowel cancer screening programme is designed to detect cancer early, often before symptoms appear, when treatment is more effective and outcomes are better.

If you are aged 50 to 74, you will be sent a free home testing kit every 2 years. The test is simple to do and checks for tiny amounts of blood in your poo, which can be an early sign of bowel cancer.

Taking part in screening can:
β€’ Detect cancer early, before symptoms develop 🩺✨
β€’ Help prevent cancer by finding and removing polyps πŸ’™πŸ”
β€’ Improve survival rates and treatment outcomes πŸ“ŠπŸŒΏ

Even if you feel healthy, it’s important to complete your test when invited.

If you notice symptoms like changes in bowel habits, blood in your poo, ongoing tummy pain or unexplained weight loss, contact your GP. Early action can save lives. πŸ’™πŸŽ—οΈβœ¨
