![]() Types and Symptoms of Crohn's DiseaseCrohn's, by any name, is a chronic disease that, although not fatal, produces some pretty miserable symptoms.... ![]() The Cause of Crohn's DiseaseWhat causes Crohn's Disease? That is the question that researchers have been looking for an answer to. It is also the question that those afflicted with Crohn's hope the researchers will find the answer for with all their hearts. Once a cause can be established with certainty, a cure won't be far behind. ![]() FAQ's Relating to Crohn's DiseaseWhen a person is first informed that he has Crohn's Disease, he will have a lot of questions. ![]() Crohn's Diet FAQ'sDiet plays a large role in the physical effects of Crohn's Disease on patients. Many patients have similar questions. ![]() Diagnosing Crohn's DiseaseA patient usually sees a doctor after he has experienced a week or more of cramping, diarrhea and nausea. ![]() Crohn's SurgeriesSooner or later just about every Crohn's patient will require a surgery...about three fourths of all Crohn's patients do. ![]() Crohn's Diagnosis....the first questionsWhen a diagnosis of Crohn's Disease is first handed down, whether it is for yourself, your spouse or your child, your mind nearly overflows with the questions that you need answered. You have all suffered through unexplained symptoms for quite awhile and, in a way, you are glad that there is a name for the problem but what does the name, Crohn's Disease, mean for you? ![]() Crohn's NutritionSometimes newly diagnosed Crohn's patients think that their poor diet or foods that they have been eating caused them to get Crohn's Disease but that just isn't the case at all. However, once a person has been diagnosed with Crohn's Disease, diet becomes a very important factor in their care and must be regulated with great care. ![]() Crohn's Disease DefinedThe dictionary defines Crohn's Disease as: "ileitis that typically involves the distal portion of the ileum, often spreads to the colon, and is characterized by diarrhea, cramping, and loss of appetite and weight with local abscesses and scarring called also regional enteritis, regional ileitis." I had to look up ‘ileitis". It means "Inflammation of the ileum." The ileum is the point where the small intestine joins the large intestine. ![]() Crohn's Affects More than Just the BodyHumans are encased in a physical body but they are made up of more than just the body. They also have minds and emotions. Crohn's is a physical disease but it affects all aspects of the human condition.
