You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.

Explain the differences between irritable bowel syndrome and irritable bowel disease.

Introduction

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and irritable bowel disease (IBD) are two very different conditions. It’s important to understand the difference between them so you can get the right diagnosis and treatment.

Question : What is irritable bowel syndrome?

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a problem with the way your colon works. It’s not caused by any physical problem with your colon, and it isn’t a disease itself. IBD, on the other hand, is a disease of the colon its symptoms are caused by an immune system problem in your digestive tract.

In these cases:

• IBS is functional disorder; IBD is functional disorder

Question : What is irritable bowel disease?

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a chronic condition that causes inflammation of the digestive tract. It can be caused by an infection, or by a reaction to food or stress. IBS can cause pain and diarrhea, and in some cases it can lead to life-threatening complications such as ulceration of the esophagus (swallowing tube), bleeding from ruptured blood vessels in your intestines, perforation (a hole in your abdomen), cancerous growths called polyps that form inside your colon or rectum, or even death.

The symptoms of IBD include:

• Painful stomach cramps near your belly button—usually on one side only; these are often described as “spasms” because they feel like muscle spasms from deep within the abdominal cavity; sometimes they are severe enough that you have difficulty standing up straight when triggered by certain foods

Question : Which is more common, IBS or IBD?

IBD is more common than irritable bowel syndrome, but it’s still a relatively rare condition. While IBS is only diagnosed in about 8% of people who have diarrhea or abdominal pain, IBD affects about 1% of the population.

IBD can be serious and even life-threatening if left untreated. If you have symptoms that are consistent with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), your doctor may recommend an evaluation by a gastroenterologist or another specialist who specializes in digestive disorders such as colon cancer screening and treatment options after surgery for cancer removal..

Question : What is the difference between IBS and IBD?

IBS and IBD are two very different conditions. IBD is a chronic disease that causes inflammation of the digestive tract, which can lead to scarring and permanent damage to your colon and rectum. In contrast, IBS is a condition that causes abdominal pain, bloating, changes in bowel habits (diarrhea or constipation) and other symptoms such as gas or bloating.

IBD does not usually occur alone; it usually occurs alongside another condition called Crohn’s Disease or ulcerative colitis. While it’s possible for people with both disorders to have one without the other for example if they’re born with both types of tissue damage around their digestive tract most people who suffer from either of these diseases also experience symptoms associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Question : So what are the symptoms of IBS?

If you’ve ever experienced abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation or bloating with IBS or any of the other symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) for that matter you’re not alone. According to the National Digestive Diseases Information Clearinghouse, between 20 and 30 million Americans experience some kind of digestive issue every year. Of these cases, only 2% are diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Question : What are the symptoms of IBD?

• Pain, cramping, and diarrhea. IBD is characterized by pain in the abdomen that occurs during or after movement. Diarrhea may be mild or severe; it can be loose or watery (more like a jelly-like stool).

• Blood in stools. This symptom occurs when inflammation in the digestive tract causes your body’s immune system to attack healthy tissue and blood vessels in your gut wall. The result is anemia—a condition where there isn’t enough red blood cells for good health because they’re being destroyed by white blood cells from both sides of your immune system (the gut lining itself also goes through changes from inflammation).

• Weight loss as a result of vomiting: Many people with IBD experience weight loss due to frequent nausea; however, some individuals don’t lose much weight at all despite vomiting frequently because their bodies are still able to absorb nutrients from food enough so that they don’t need any extra calories just yet!

Question : Can you get IBD from eating bad food or not washing your hands after going to the toilet?

You can’t get IBD from eating bad food. In fact, if you have irritable bowel syndrome and eat a lot of fast food or processed foods (which are high in sugars), your symptoms will probably get worse.

If you have irritable bowel syndrome and don’t wash your hands after going to the toilet, that’s fine you don’t need to worry about getting sick from not washing them! If someone has IBD, it’s because their immune system is failing due to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It’s not because they didn’t take care of themselves properly; it’s just a symptom of the disease itself.

Irritable bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome are different conditions.

Irritable bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are different conditions. Both can cause abdominal pain, bloating, and diarrhea or constipation. However, IBD is a chronic condition that lasts for years or even decades; it’s not caused by something you eat or drink. IBS typically develops suddenly and goes away over time on its own without medication or surgery.

Conclusion

So what are the symptoms of IBS? What are the symptoms of IBD? If you have been diagnosed with either condition, it is important to know that there is no cure for these diseases. They are chronic conditions that can be treated but will always come back eventually.
