Abdominal Pain       04/22/03 07:13 AM Edit Reply Quote veritas Reged: 04/22/03 Posts: 1 Heather: I have had IBS-C for a year. I have been on your diet and I recently started exercising with light weights and doing abdominal exercises. I have not done much exercise for 15 years. Well, a day after I did the abdominal exercises I noticed the IBS pain was not as bad. I was not sure that was the reason so I did them again. Now I have been doing them every day or every other day for about 4 weeks and my IBS pain has definitely been reduced! I think the abdominal muscles are pushing against the colon when it spasms and will not allow it to jerk around as much. So I intend to do this forever because it really helps. I have tried other exercises, but it was not until I started working the abs that I felt a difference. You want to work the upper abs (crunches), lower and sides. There are many variations of ab exercises. I hope this will help someone, because it has sure helped me. I have to do this in combination with the IBS diet. Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
