Crohn’s disease is a form of chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. This inflammation can take place anywhere between the ileum of the small intestine to the colon of the large intestine. Common symptoms of Crohn’s disease from mild to severe intensity include abdominal pain, reduced appetite, fever, and frequent diarrhea. Rectal bleeding is encountered in few cases due to fissures from inflammation at anal canal. Factors responsible for causing Crohn’s disease include hereditary genes, autoimmune reaction that causes inflammatory condition, and environmental factors such as bacteria and virus. The disease majorly affects people falling between age group of 15-35 years and occurs in both males and females.

Improvement in long-term prognosis can be achieved through several medications prescribed for the treatment of Crohn’s disease that include anti-inflammatory drugs, immune system suppressers, antibiotics and other medication that helps to control inflammation.
