Crohn’s Disease

Plano Social Security Disability Attorney

Crohn’s disease is a continuous medical disorder that causes inflammation in the gastrointestinal (or digestive) tract. It most commonly affects the lower section of the small intestine. Common symptoms include the following:

  • Abdominal pain
  • Diarrhea
  • Rectal bleeding
  • Skin problems
  • Weight loss
  • Arthritis

These symptoms are similar to other intestinal disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and ulcerative colitis, so the disease is often difficult to diagnose by medical professionals. However, unlike ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease is able to cause inflammation and swelling in all layers of the intestine.
