Crohn’s disease is a type of inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation of the tissues in the digestive tract. This may lead to cramps, severe diarrhea, fatigue, weight loss and malnutrition.
Silent symptoms of Crohn’s disease can be detected as follows:
eyes
Some people with Crohn’s disease may already be affected by eye problems.
The most common condition is inflammation of the outer white layer of the eye, which makes it red, painful and inflamed.
skin
The most common skin problem in people with Crohn’s disease is erythema nodosum, which is inflammation of the fat layer under the skin.
They appear as raised red and purple bumps that are painful to the touch.
Erythema nodosum coincides with the activity of Crohn’s episodes but may ease with treatment.
the mouth
Crohn’s patients often develop “orofacial granulomatosis,” a condition characterized by persistent enlargement of the soft tissues of the mouth, lips, and perioral area of the face.
joints
A common complication of Crohn’s disease is arthritis.
It is more common when Crohn’s disease affects the colon.
