Any kind of illness or health condition brings its challenges but bowel problems can cause particularly high levels of distress and embarrassment.
Many of us feel uncomfortable admitting that we are having problems in this area and this can lead us to make some choices that are detrimental to our health.
In every type of bowel condition, early diagnosis and treatment offers the best chance of recovery. At the very least, the symptoms will be less severe and, therefore generally easier to treat.
It is common though for embarrassment to get in the way of seeking medical advice for bowel problems until the symptoms worsen. By this point, whatever is causing the problem can be more difficult to treat and, in the case of serious conditions the chances of recovering completely can be reduced.
While this discomfort is natural and understandable, it is reassuring to know that with the right support from specialist doctors, you can lessen or even alleviate your symptoms.
