IBD

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a condition that causes long-term inflammation in your digestive tract. There are two types of IBD: ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease. Ulcerative colitis is the inflammation of the inner lining of your large intestine (colon). Crohn’s disease is the inflammation of any portion of your digestive tract, from your mouth to your anus. IBD can cause intense abdominal pain, frequent diarrhea, weight loss, and fatigue. These symptoms may last for days, weeks, or months. IBD can be difficult to treat, and symptoms often come and go. However, there are things you can do to manage your symptoms and reduce stress on your body.
