Seven steps to taking the pain out of IBS




Help relax the spasms and relieve the pain of IBS. Plus, enter the Buscopan® IBS Relief competition now to win a luxury yoga spa weekend for two worth over £600

1. Get diagnosed
Be sure that your symptoms are due to IBS and not another condition

2. Relieve the problem at the source
To cope with the pain, take a treatment which specifically targets the painful abdominal spasms associated with IBS such as Buscopan® IBS Relief

3. Exercise regularly
Exercise can help relieve depression and stress, stimulates normal contractions of your intestines and can help you feel better about yourself

4. Identify any `trigger- foods'
Keep a food diary. You can often identify food and drinks that trigger symptoms and diet can subsequently be modified

5. Talk things through
It is often the case that stressful events bring on symptoms so by dealing with the bigger issues, the pain can be avoided

6. De-stress
Stress can often be the cause of symptom flare-ups and can further exacerbate an existing attack so look into relaxation techniques

7. Be informed
It is important to feel in control of your symptoms so gather as much information you can. Visit www.ibs-relief.co.uk
