Crohn's Disease in Adults for the Primary Care Physician

Abstract

Crohn's disease is an inflammatory bowel disease of unclear etiology, associated with an excessive immune response with stages of remission and activation. It can affect the entire gastrointestinal tract from the mouth to the anus; the most frequent symptoms are abdominal pain and diarrhea. The impact that lifestyle modification and good treatment have on the patient's life is so crucial that primary care physicians must learn to recognize it and not confuse it with similar gastrointestinal pathologies
