Have you been diagnosed with IBS? If you have IBS, a food diary, antispasmodics/painkillers, the Low Fodmap diet and Imodium may help. Try to stay as calm as possible and this helps to control flare ups. If you have not been diagnosed, see your doctor and ask for tests to rule out other causes first.
Try probiotics for some weeks. See if it improves your condition. It can be related to lessening up of healthy bacterias.
Try a bowl of home made chicken soup, not canned which contains preservatives, additives, and is watered down. You can have it with noodles or selected vegetables. It has long been know as a cure-all for stomach and other disorders.
