Post-infectious irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a condition that can develop in some individuals after recovering from a gastrointestinal infection, such as food poisoning or a bacterial or viral infection. The importance of the patient's pre-existing health or terrain lies in the fact that individuals with a compromised or already sensitive gastrointestinal system may be more susceptible to developing post-infectious IBS. This condition is characterized by persistent digestive symptoms like abdominal pain, diarrhea, and bloating and underscores the need for comprehensive care and monitoring of the patient's digestive health both before and after an infection to prevent and manage such issues effectively.
