Crohn’s disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic
inflammatory disease of the intestines, but is closely related to another
chronic inflammatory condition that involves only the colon called ulcerative colitis.
Symptoms usually manifest as ulcerations of the small and
large intestines, but it can also affect the digestive system anywhere from the
mouth to the anus.
The most popular theory of what causes Crohn’s
disease is that the body’s immune system reacts abnormally, mistaking bacteria,
foods and other substances as being foreign.
The immune system’s response is to attack these invaders,
and this is known as an immune system disorder. During this process, white
blood cells accumulate in the lining of the intestines, producing chronic
inflammation.
