Chrones Disease is a disease or infammation of the small intestine. Ulcerative colitis is inflammation and ulceration of the colon or large intestine. Chrones is harder to treat as much of the nutrients are absorbed in the small intestine so removing parts of it causes more of a problem that if one removes part or all of the large intestine...IF it is very severe. Steroids are used to quell inflammation and other medications.
