Crohn's Disease Symptoms
 Like most other digestive problems, Crohn's disease symptoms are experienced differently from person to person. What is a dull, nagging pain to some is a sharp, crippling pain to others. Because of this, as well as the fact that Crohn's disease is capable of going into remission, it can be difficult to obtain a correct diagnosis. Since there is no cure for Crohn's disease, catching it early is your best opportunity to avoid the damage this condition can cause.
Some of the most common Crohn's disease symptoms include:
- Abdominal pain, both internal and to the touch
- Frequent diarrhea
- Loss of appetite
- Fever
- Weight loss
- Anemia
These are just some of the most common Crohn's disease symptoms, but the condition may also cause:
- Mouth sores
- Obstructed bowels
- Fistulas (tunnels that may form between the bowel wall and nearby organs)
- Abscesses
If you are experiencing any of these Crohn's disease symptoms, or suspect you may be suffering from another digestive problem, contact your health care provider. He or she can help you determine your condition and create a Crohn's disease treatment plan that works best for you and your needs.
