Gas: Causes, Symptoms & How to Get Relief

Gas can often be treated with over-the-counter medications and changes to your diet. Occasionally, gas is a sign of conditions like irritable bowel syndrome and celiac disease.

Foods to Avoid With IBS

There are several types of foods that can trigger IBS symptoms, so limiting or eliminating them can reduce the number of attacks you have. Dairy, high-fat foods, wheat, and caffeine are some of the foods that people with IBS say triggers their symptoms.

Common Complications of IBS

Irritable bowel syndrome may cause other issues for you like hemorrhoids, mood changes, and pelvic pain. Medication, therapy, and lifestyle changes can reduce symptoms.

Difficulty Swallowing

Difficulty swallowing can be a sign of a problem with your esophagus or more serious health problems, such as a stroke or cancer of the esophagus or stomach.

Causes of Mucus in Diarrhea

Noticing mucus in diarrhea could be a variation of normal. Mucus is secreted by your intestines and is part of the digestive process. But seeing large amounts may indicate something is off in your digestive tract. Analyzing additional symptoms can help you clue into next steps for diagnosis and treatment.

Stomach Bloating

Everyone experiences bloating sometimes, and it’s usually just a temporary problem. But bloating can be a sign of chronic conditions like irritable bowel syndrome and celiac disease that need to be treated by your doctor.
