Crohn's can affect the joints. See the related link below for more information.

The inflammation that appears with both Crohn's and UC often shows up in other area's of the body like joints.

The symptoms are pain, swelling and joint stiffness that flare up and then go away, then flare up again. The more severe the IBD the more severe the Arthritis.

When the joints are involved in combination with IBD the diagnosis is call IBD Arthritis.

Treatment often amounts to moist heat and cold packs, bed rest when severe,non steroidal anti- inflammatory medications like ibuprofen.

Does rye flour aggravate arthritis?

Rye flour, like other whole grains, contains gluten, which can be inflammatory for individuals with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease, potentially aggravating arthritis symptoms in those populations. However, for most people without gluten issues, rye flour is a nutritious option that may not significantly impact arthritis. It is rich in fiber and nutrients, which can be beneficial for overall health. It's best for individuals with arthritis to monitor their own reactions to specific foods and consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
