The most common symptoms of Crohn's disease

summary

Crohn's disease is also known as "localized enteritis", "segmental enteritis" and "chronic full-thickness enteritis". It is characterized by unknown etiology, mostly in young people, manifested as granulomatous inflammatory lesions, combined with fibrosis and ulcer. It can invade any part of the whole gastrointestinal tract, including the mouth and anus. The lesions are segmental or jumping, and can invade the outside of the intestinal tract, especially the skin. The clinical manifestations vary according to the location, scope and degree of the lesions, including abdominal pain, diarrhea, abdominal mass, fistula formation and intestinal obstruction, accompanied by fever and anemia. The course of disease is slow and easy to recur. The most common symptom of Crohn's disease? Let's talk about it

The most common symptoms of Crohn's disease

(1) General manifestations: weight loss and gradual loss are the most common symptoms. About 1 / 3 patients have low or moderate fever without chills. At this time, they often have active lesions or complications. Nausea and vomiting: when the lesions invade the stomach and duodenum, jejunum, ileum, or form intestinal stenosis causing partial intestinal obstruction, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and other symptoms will appear.

(2) Abdominal pain: the most common symptom, intermittent attack. Mild cases only have bowel sounds and abdominal discomfort, severe cases can be severe colic. Eating food containing more cellulose often causes abdominal pain. Diarrhea and abdominal pain often appear in colonic diseases. Abdominal pain can be relieved after defecation or exhaust.

(3) Defecation changes: most patients have diarrhea, mostly intermittent attacks, stool frequency is related to the scope of lesions. Every day 2-3 times to more than 10 times, even dozens of times. For soft stool or thin stool, do not contain pus or mucus. Extensive diffuse small bowel disease may have watery stool or fatty stool. Diarrhea is often associated with eating foods rich in cellulose. Emotional excitement or tension can also induce diarrhea, but different from mental diarrhea, night can wake up because of defecation. Those patients with distal colon involvement may have symptoms such as acute defecation, tenesmus, constipation, and difficulty defecating.
