yes, the term spastic colon and mucus colitis were used before IBS came into recognition.
But, with UC, our colons and butts do spasm during flaring...I call them hissy fits.
Antispasmodics can serve for both purposes, and for those of us who have both happening at the same time or duing phases of varied inflammation or remission.
As well, fibre supplements help with evening out the spasming, encouraging the appropriate movement of peristalsis, etc.
