Crohns disease has not yet been proven to be genetics. People develop Crohns with no family history or having any sort of digestive system issues. The belief that Crohns disease exists is because of today's medical advancement. Peoples immune systems are not as strong as they once were because of immunisation shots and such, this disease is on the UP and more and more people are being diagnosed. So it is hard to say what chances are of your offspring acquiring the disease.
There is no know cause of Crohns disease at this time. Research is ongoing as to the causes of Crohns disease.
Crohn's (a digestive disease) does not affect growth or height.
hmm im not sure but something that seems to help people with crohns is remicade...so maybe that?
Most certainly. Crohns while active can cause nausea as can some of the medications used to treat the disease. There are however many remedies to control the nausea.
No. Drug abuse history has never been linked to Crohns disease. Children as young as 3 can develop Crohns disease. Crohns is not something you have done to yourself.
The Crohns Disease Activity Index is a questionnaire used in research to help measure how the disease is affecting the patient.
Yes. Many Crohns sufferers prior to being diagnosed with the disease will have had a diagnosis of appendicitis and many patients will have that organ removed. Severe appendicitis has similar symptoms to a Crohns flare up.
