About

What it feels like
Recurrent abdominal pain or cramping
Bloating and visible abdominal distension
Excess gas and flatulence
Diarrhoea, constipation, or alternating between both

When to get help
See a doctor if symptoms include unexplained weight loss, rectal bleeding, waking at night with symptoms, or began after age 50 — these require investigation to exclude inflammatory bowel disease or bowel cancer.
