More about Crohn's

Crohn’s Disease may be caused by an overactive immune system or hereditary factors, but no one knows the exact cause. You may have Crohn’s disease if you experience:

  • Blood in your stool
  • Chronic fatigue or fever
  • Weight loss or reduced appetite
  • Diarrhea or abdominal cramping

The effects of Crohn’s disease are far-reaching, so you may notice additional symptoms in other areas of your body, including:

  • Eye irritation
  • Mouth sores
  • Inflammation of your skin
  • Pain and inflammation in your joints

Crohn’s disease can be very serious and debilitating, and it should be treated directly by your gastroenterologist. At Digestive Medicine Associates, the doctors offer several effective ways to treat Crohn’s disease. They may suggest:

  • Testing to check for anemia and other nutritional deficiencies
  • Vitamins, supplements, and other nutritional options
  • Corticosteroid medications to reduce inflammation in your digestive system
  • Medications to suppress your immune system, reducing inflammation
  • Antibiotic medications to eliminate bacteria causing infection

In severe cases of Crohn’s disease, surgery may be indicated. Your doctor can discuss surgical options with you and help you make the right decision about treatment.
