Common symptoms: Abdominal pain or cramps, distension, gas, and changes in bowel patterns such as diarrhea or constipation, which are frequently associated with situations of stress or anxiety.

Common causes: It is considered an interaction between the functioning of the intestine and emotional factors, without any lesion that explains the discomfort.

Which specialist treats it? The proctologist and, where appropriate, the general surgeon can evaluate the digestive system, while the general practitioner provides initial guidance. If the discomfort is persistent or affects your daily life, it is worth discussing it with a professional.
