Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, leads to chronic inflammation in the digestive tract. This inflammation can cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and weight loss, and may result in complications like strictures or fistulas. The condition can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract, but commonly impacts the intestines, disrupting normal digestion and nutrient absorption. Over time, ongoing inflammation can also increase the risk of colorectal cancer.
