Is it common for IBS to cause frequent ruination during a flare up?

usually my body gets really hot and I have the urgency to have a bowel movement while simultaneously having the urgency to pee. I’ve had a flare up today and I’ve been peeing a lot, like almost every hour for the last 6 hours. I think think this is due to a urinary tract infection though because it doesn’t hurt to pee. It’s like my bladder is still full after peeing. Could this be a prostate problem instead? I’m not exactly sure but the frequent urination and lower abdominal discomfort is very bothersome. Anyone know how to treat frequent urination?

    Yes, I experience this. My Dr told me the nerves are close together between the gut and bladder, which can cause frequent urination.

    Hi there,I was the same wanting to pee all the time but once I got my IBS under control the wanting to pee all the time went away , even now if I eat something I shouldn’t the wanting to pee comes back ,it’s IBS D that I suffer from so I cut half of my fiber out and take Loperomide daily as recommended by my Gastroenterologist,good luck .

    Frequent urination is an IBS symptom.  To find out if you have an infection,take a sample to you doctor.  Ask your doctor about probate trouble if you are worried.  However, if it happens only during a flare up, it is more likely to be IBS.
