Up to 70 percent of the people with IBS don't seek medical treatment for their condition. While it hasn't been cured, there are treatments. Here are a few things that tend to worsen the symptoms of IBS:
* Large meals
* Bloating from gas in the colon
* Medicines
* Wheat, rye, barley, chocolate, milk products, or alcohol
* Drinks with caffeine, such as coffee, tea, or colas
* Stress, conflict, or emotional upsets.
