Hello,
With the question “Is it possible to definitively treat irritable bowel syndrome? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Irritable bowel syndrome (English name is irritable bowel syndrome-IBS) is a phenomenon of bowel dysfunction, repeated many times, but when the patient goes to the doctor, The tests did not find any anatomical or biochemical lesions in the intestine.
Irritable bowel syndrome is a disease with great psychological relevance. If you think it's gone completely, it's gone completely, and if you think it's gone again, it's gone again.
This is a disease that does not require surgery. Treatments include drugs and non-drugs. Therefore, you should visit your doctor for specific advice.
