Crohn's Disease

Crohn’s disease is a sort of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) characterized by chronic inflammation of the digestive tract. It might have effects on any part of the gastrointestinal tract from the mouth to the anus, but commonly impacts the ileum (the last part of the small intestine) and the colon. Symptoms of Crohn’s disease include abdominal pain, diarrhea, weight loss, and fatigue. The exact cause of Crohn’s disease is obscure, but it is accepted to include a combination of genetic, environmental, and immune system factors. Treatment focuses on managing symptoms and reducing inflammation through medications such as corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, and biologics. In some cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to remove damaged sections of the digestive tract or manage complications. Ongoing research aims to better understand the disease and develop more effective treatments, while patients benefit from a multidisciplinary approach to care that includes dietary management and support for mental health.
