Hello,
With the question Ask “How can I improve apple-shaped irritable bowel syndrome? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Irritable bowel syndrome has 03 types: apple, liquid and mixed. Constipation can be explained by the decrease in intestinal motility, which causes stool to stay in the colon longer, increasing water reabsorption, leading to constipation. The treatment of irritable bowel syndrome is not easy, depending on the type, there are different treatments.
First of all, it is necessary to thoroughly treat the physical diseases in the gastrointestinal tract such as inflammation, ulcers... Can be used to increase, decrease, regulate bowel movements, digestive enzymes, anti-diarrheal, anti-constipation but cannot be used for a long time.
With an apple like yours, a diet rich in vegetables and plenty of water is fine, but it needs to be done in a disciplined manner. Limit eating spicy, fried, grilled, and long-digested foods. Green vegetables, you also have to choose soft, viscous vegetables such as spinach, jute vegetables, loofah, soup tubers, tubers, sweet potatoes, taro... and try to eat all 3 meals regularly.
You also need to actively drink more water even when you are not thirsty. Exercise or play conditioning sports such as walking, cycling, swimming...Eat on time, sleep on time, avoid stress. Rub your belly daily in a clockwise direction from right to left, as much as possible.
