Antibiotics can help manage Crohn's disease by targeting bacterial overgrowth and reducing inflammation associated with infections in the intestines. They may alleviate symptoms and complications, especially in cases where there is a secondary infection or an abscess. However, the use of antibiotics in Crohn's disease is generally considered a supportive treatment rather than a primary therapy, and their effectiveness can vary among individuals. Long-term antibiotic use is typically avoided due to potential side effects and antibiotic resistance.
