Patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) who experience abdominal pain can lightly massage their abdomen or apply heat using a hot towel or heating pad. Of course, if the abdominal pain is severe, antispasmodic pain relief medication can be used for treatment, or traditional Chinese medicine therapies such as physical therapy, acupuncture, or moxibustion can be applied. Patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome should maintain a light diet and avoid spicy and irritating foods. They should eat more foods containing rough fiber to more effectively prevent the occurrence of abdominal pain. Additionally, patients need to regulate dietary and emotional factors.
