Question

irritable bowel syndrome

Irritable bowel syndrome is a chronic disorder that affects the large intestine but is not life - threatening. GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) is a common condition where stomach acid flows back into the esophagus and is usually not fatal. Hemorrhoids are swollen veins in the anus or lower rectum and are not typically life - ending. However, bleeding ulcers can cause severe blood loss which, if not treated promptly, can be fatal.
