Understanding​ ​Crohn’s​ ​Disease What​ ​is​ ​Crohn’s​ ​Disease?

Crohn’s​ ​disease​ ​is​ ​a​ ​chronic​ ​inflammatory​ ​disease​ ​of​ ​the​ ​bowels​ ​in​ ​which​ ​the​ ​gastrointestinal​ ​tract​ ​is most​ ​affected.​ ​ ​The​ ​gastrointestinal​ ​tract​ ​refers​ ​to​ ​the​ ​group​ ​consisting​ ​of​ ​mouth,​ ​esophagus, stomach,​ ​both​ ​small​ ​and​ ​large​ ​intestine,​ ​and​ ​anus,​ ​although​ ​symptoms​ ​can​ ​occur​ ​which​ ​affects​ ​a sufferer’s​ ​skin,​ ​joints​ ​and​ ​eyes.​ ​ ​It​ ​is​ ​not​ ​contagious,​ ​and​ ​you​ ​cannot​ ​contract​ ​Crohn’s​ ​through​ ​your actions​ ​or​ ​by​ ​an​ ​inadequate​ ​diet.

How​ ​does​ ​Crohn’s​ ​develop?

First​ ​of​ ​all,​ ​Crohn’s​ ​is​ ​not​ ​contagious,​ ​so​ ​you​ ​didn’t​ ​“catch”​ ​it​ ​from​ ​someone​ ​or​ ​by​ ​someplace​ ​you’ve been.​ ​ ​You​ ​cannot​ ​get​ ​Crohn’s​ ​through​ ​an​ ​inadequate​ ​diet.​ ​ ​Although​ ​the​ ​exact​ ​causes​ ​aren’t​ ​widely understood,​ ​it’s​ ​generally​ ​thought​ ​that​ ​Crohn’s​ ​disease​ ​may​ ​be​ ​genetically​ ​inherited​ ​(so​ ​if​ ​someone​ ​in your​ ​family​ ​has​ ​Crohn’s​ ​it’s​ ​likely​ ​that​ ​you’ll​ ​be​ ​more​ ​susceptible​ ​to​ ​getting​ ​it.).​ ​ ​Your​ ​individual immune​ ​system​ ​also​ ​plays​ ​a​ ​part;​ ​since​ ​Crohn’s​ ​is​ ​thought​ ​to​ ​be​ ​a​ ​hyperactive​ ​or​ ​overactive​ ​immune system,​ ​sometimes​ ​environmental​ ​factors​ ​beyond​ ​your​ ​control​ ​trigger​ ​an​ ​abnormal​ ​immune response.​ ​ ​This​ ​leads​ ​to​ ​a​ ​chronic​ ​condition​ ​of​ ​raw​ ​and​ ​inflamed​ ​intestines,​ ​and​ ​can​ ​lead​ ​directly​ ​to Crohn’s. The​ ​disease​ ​most​ ​often​ ​affects​ ​individuals​ ​between​ ​the​ ​ages​ ​of​ ​15​ ​and​ ​35.​ ​But​ ​it​ ​can​ ​potentially​ ​affect anyone​ ​at​ ​any​ ​age.​ ​ ​It​ ​affects​ ​both,​ ​men​ ​and​ ​women,​ ​ ​equally.​ ​Although​ ​interestingly​ ​enough,​ ​there have​ ​been​ ​studies​ ​showing​ ​anover​ ​average​ ​number​ ​of​ ​Crohn’s​ ​sufferers​ ​among​ ​the​ ​Ashkenazi​ ​Jews.

Two​ ​reasons​ ​to​ ​get​ ​Crohn’s​ ​related​ ​testing​ ​&​ ​common​ ​tests:

You’ll​ ​want​ ​to​ ​see​ ​your​ ​doctor​ ​to​ ​determine​ ​whether​ ​you​ ​have​ ​Crohn’s​ ​in​ ​the​ ​first​ ​place.​ ​Also,​ ​upon​ ​a confirmed​ ​diagnosis,​ ​to​ ​re-evaluate​ ​your​ ​Crohn’s​ ​disease​ ​on​ ​a​ ​regular​ ​basis.

https://sites.google.com/site/crohnsdiseaseusa/ Common​ ​tests​ ​are​ ​through​ ​either​ ​blood​ ​or​ ​imaging.​ ​ ​The​ ​blood​ ​tests​ ​involve​ ​a​ ​routine​ ​procedure​ ​to detect​ ​infection,​ ​anemia,​ ​inflammation.​ ​Also,​ ​to​ ​identify​ ​(and​ ​subsequently​ ​treat)​ ​any​ ​vitamin​ ​or mineral​ ​deficiencies.​ ​ ​There​ ​are​ ​also​ ​fecal​ ​blood​ ​tests​ ​(to​ ​determine​ ​if​ ​you​ ​have​ ​blood​ ​in​ ​your​ ​stool). Also,​ ​antibody​ ​blood​ ​tests​ ​(to​ ​look​ ​for​ ​antibodies​ ​and​ ​proteins​ ​that​ ​will​ ​indicate​ ​to​ ​your​ ​doctor​ ​which diseases​ ​your​ ​body​ ​is​ ​currently​ ​trying​ ​to​ ​fight​ ​off). Imaging​ ​tests​ ​can​ ​include​ ​conventional​ ​x-rays,​ ​contrast​ ​x-rays,​ ​endoscopy,​ ​and​ ​endoscopy ultrasound.

Things​ ​to​ ​do​ ​before​ ​visiting​ ​your​ ​doctor:

In​ ​order​ ​to​ ​have​ ​all​ ​of​ ​the​ ​pertinent​ ​information​ ​you’ll​ ​need​ ​to​ ​help​ ​your​ ​doctor​ ​with​ ​a​ ​diagnosis, there​ ​are​ ​a​ ​few​ ​things​ ​you​ ​can​ ​do.​ ​ ​Make​ ​a​ ​list​ ​of​ ​all​ ​current​ ​medications​ ​(including​ ​herbal​ ​varieties) that​ ​you’re​ ​currently​ ​taking.​ ​ ​Keep​ ​a​ ​diary​ ​of​ ​your​ ​symptoms,​ ​how​ ​long​ ​they​ ​lasted,​ ​and​ ​how​ ​severe​ ​or mild​ ​each​ ​one​ ​was.​ ​ ​You​ ​might​ ​also​ ​keep​ ​track​ ​of​ ​things​ ​you​ ​missed​ ​because​ ​of​ ​your​ ​symptoms.​ ​For example,​ ​did​ ​you​ ​stay​ ​home​ ​from​ ​work,​ ​or​ ​miss​ ​a​ ​meal​ ​due​ ​to​ ​discomfort?​ ​ ​If​ ​you’re​ ​forgetful,​ ​or​ ​if you’re​ ​worried​ ​that​ ​you’ll​ ​be​ ​too​ ​emotional​ ​to​ ​relay​ ​or​ ​receive​ ​important​ ​information,​ ​it​ ​might​ ​help​ ​to bring​ ​a​ ​friend​ ​or​ ​family​ ​member​ ​with​ ​you.​ ​ ​The​ ​better​ ​your​ ​doctor​ ​understands​ ​your​ ​symptoms​ ​and how​ ​they​ ​affect​ ​you,​ ​the​ ​better​ ​he​ ​or​ ​she​ ​can​ ​not​ ​only​ ​diagnose​ ​you.​ ​But​ ​also​ ​prescribe​ ​appropriate relief. Most​ ​of​ ​all,​ ​remember​ ​that​ ​although​ ​some​ ​details​ ​might​ ​lead​ ​to​ ​embarrassment,​ ​your​ ​doctor​ ​is​ ​a professional​ ​who​ ​deals​ ​with​ ​many​ ​situations​ ​like​ ​these​ ​on​ ​a​ ​daily​ ​basis.​ ​ ​Don’t​ ​be​ ​afraid​ ​to​ ​share details!
