I recently made the mistake of carrying my fire pit by myself (160 lbs or so) by placing may arms around the unit and putting the 3 inch thick top below my pecks at the top of my belly. Moved it about 75 feet carrying the weight on the top of my belly. Continued to set up the patio/deck area for party. I a few days the entire stomach area became hard and a little distended…super sensitive to the tough. Seems to hurt anyway I moved…over a few days the right side dissipated but now a week later from the center and all of the left side are still super painful and not relaxing or less sensitive. No discoloring or vomiting just painful and not going away. What could this be? I guess I bruised the muscles in that area and I need to know if this is something that can go away like the right side. This was caused by physically injuring the area. I have been told that I could have herniated myself…When I was in my college years this would have been a non-issue but I turned 50 recently. Anyone have any insight or guidance? Much appreciated.

Hi Shreeda. There is no cure for IBS. The focus is on managing the condition, minimizing symptoms and also routine screening to ensure that it is not more serious conditions like IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) or colorectal cancer. Diet is one of the main ways to manage IBS although fiber supplements and certain drugs may also assist. But none of these measures is a cure.

In reply to MARIE HUSSEY. try cannabis, I found relief after 22 years. Once the cannabis starts to works its magic (less than 2 minutes to ease the tightness and cramping), you can then focus on the things that will help you fight IBS, like a glass of water and following FODMAP. Good luck

I have a horrible tightness in my stomach and this have been going on for two weeks. I live with IBS and have done so for years, but just recently it seems to be worse than usual. I eat very little (probably the wrong things) and still spend most of the day on and off on the loo, alternating between hard and soft stools, and also the feeling of never having totally emptied. This blasted thing affect not only my life but those around me as well, as they have to make allowances for me all the time, both at home and work and although I appreciate that they do, it’s bloody humiliating and embarrassing. Most of all I really resent the term Irritable, life wreaking would be a much more apt description.
