Crohn's Disease can indicate various underlying conditions, including digestive disorders, infections, inflammation, or more serious health concerns requiring medical evaluation.
Symptoms may include discomfort, pain, bloating, nausea, changes in bowel habits, or other digestive issues, depending on the underlying cause.
Diagnosis involves a physical examination, patient history review, lab tests, imaging, and sometimes specialized procedures to determine the exact cause.
Treatment may include medications, dietary modifications, lifestyle changes, hydration, stress management, or surgical intervention based on severity.
Maintaining a balanced diet, staying hydrated, managing stress, regular exercise, avoiding known triggers, and routine medical check-ups help prevent Crohn's Disease.
