What Happens If IBS Goes Untreated?

While IBS is not considered a life-threatening condition, it can pose serious complications if left untreated, including:
- Pain and Discomfort - IBS can cause pain or discomfort, especially if it goes on for long periods.
- Bloating - A common symptom of IBS with constipation (IBS-C) is bloating, where the bowel becomes blocked, allowing the bacteria within the gut to continue fermenting.
- Hemorrhoids - Also known as piles, hemorrhoids are commonly associated with IBS; if the underlying condition is not properly managed, hemorrhoids can be uncomfortable and could risk getting worse as time goes on.
- Diverticulitis - In some cases, IBS can contribute to other issues, such as diverticulitis; this can arise if the bowels bulge due to the backlog of waste.

What Is a Chronic Disease?

A chronic disease is a medical condition that has lasted for several months requires ongoing medical attention or limits the activities you can complete as part of day-to-day life. The leading cause of disability and death in the U.S. is chronic diseases such as diabetes, cancer, and heart disease. Chronic disease is often caused by risky behavior choices such as smoking or second-hand smoke exposure, poor nutrition, excessive alcohol use, and a lack of physical activity. Chronic diseases need to be managed and treated for the rest of a person's life as there is no vaccine or cure for chronic diseases.

What Is Diarrhea?

Diarrhea is a condition that causes loose, watery stools (bowel movements) that happen more often than usual. You have diarrhea if you have loose stools three or more times in one day. Acute diarrhea is diarrhea that lasts a short period and is a common problem. It usually lasts about one or two days, but it may last longer and typically goes away on its own.

Diarrhea lasting more than a few days may be a sign of a more serious problem. Chronic diarrhea, diarrhea that lasts at least four weeks, can be a symptom of a chronic disease. Chronic diarrhea symptoms may be continual, or they may come and go.

What Is an Endoscopy?

An endoscopy is a medical procedure that uses a specialized instrument called an endoscope, a flexible tube with a light and camera attached, to view the interior surfaces of an organ or tissue. This non-surgical technique allows doctors to diagnose, and sometimes treat, conditions within the digestive tract, respiratory system, and other internal organs. It is commonly used to investigate symptoms such as abdominal pain, bleeding, or changes in bowel habits.

What Are the Warning Signs of IBS?

Irritable Bowel Syndrome or IBS affects the large intestine and typically includes symptoms such as abdominal cramping, gas, bloating, diarrhea, abdominal pain, or constipation. Additional symptoms can include a change in the appearance of bowel movements, a change in how often you are having bowel movements, and abdominal pain that coincides with bowel movements. Symptoms are thought to be related to abnormalities in digestive system nerves which lead to discomfort, especially when the abdomen stretches from gas or stool. The result is usually diarrhea, constipation, or pain.

What to Expect during a Colonoscopy?

A colonoscopy may cause some discomfort, but rarely causes any pain. There is often a feeling of pressure, bloating, or cramping at times during the procedure, and patients may also feel like they need to pass gas, which is a normal side effect of the insertion of the medical device. To help patients relax and better tolerate any discomfort from the procedure, a doctor may give them medication through a vein (IV). During the procedure, patients lie on their side or their back while the colonoscope is advanced slowly through the large intestine.
