About Crohn's Disease
Crohn’s disease is a chronic inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract. It belongs to a group of conditions known as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD).
IBD affects an estimated 3 million Americans
Crohn’s disease can affect any part of the GI tract, but most commonly affects the end of the small bowel and beginning of the colon.
Crohn’s disease is most often diagnosed in adults between the ages of 20 and 30.
Inflammation of the intestine, caused by Crohn’s disease, can leave normal patches in between diseased ones.
