Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a group of chronic conditions that cause inflammation of the digestive tract. Common symptoms include abdominal pain, cramping, fatigue, diarrhea, loss of appetite and weight loss. IBD can have a significant impact on quality of life, as it can lead to long-term disability and complications. Treatment typically involves lifestyle changes and medications such as steroids, immunomodulators and biologics to reduce inflammation and help control symptoms. Early diagnosis and aggressive treatment can lead to a better overall outcome for people with IBD.
