Hi, Crohn’s disease is an disorder that causes inflammation of the digestive tract. Most commonly it affects the lower part of the small intestine, called the ileum. The problem is that the swelling extends deep into the lining of the affected organ. It provokes pain and can resulting in diarrhea. If there is also appendicitis present, the condition is even more severe. Crohn’s disease can be easily taken for any other digestive disorder as they have very similar symptoms.
