Since the 3/4 of November I have been unwell ish and found my self constipated a few times and currently am now, I’ve had weird discomfort since too I’m just wondering if this could be constipation or ibs-c I am 17 year old male, I’ve had bloods, ct scan and ultrasound and all came back fine. I don’t believe it gets worse after eating either

You mention that you have been constipated a few times. With IBS-C constipation will be more prevalent than that. Have you been consuming enough fibre? Are you having enough liquids? 2 litres a day are recommended.

Sounds like ibs c I have that also, I started becoming constipated more often and real discomfort in my rectum area, had blood done also and they came back normal, so just handed laxatives. It's awful I've been dairy free and gluten free for awhile now just to see if it helps as I cant bear the pain.

Hi there I also suffer with this are you taking antispasmodic ? , try drinking plenty warm water , ginger and lemon tea , glycerine suppositories or movicol which softens it up making it easier to pass , go for a brisk walk for 30 or more minutes to stimulate digestion get things moving . It’s horrible being like that I feel for you x
