Crohn's Disease, The Humira Commerical!
Crohn's Disease is an inflammatory bowel disease that affects the gastrointestinal region (the stomach area), which causes stomach pain, diarrhea, bleeding, skin rashes, anemia, fever, fatigue, tiredness, eye inflammation, and arthritis. Another caveat sign is bowel obstruction, which should be monitored as it could lead to bowel cancer. To compare, Crohn's appears to be similar to stomach ulcer since it causes bleeding, excruciating pain, and vomiting.
Crohn's Disease equally affected males and females across North America and Europe. unfortunately, it was reported that over 35,000 people died from this disease in 2010.
It is recommend that surgery be the last option unless Crohn's disease causes severe pain or bleeding. There are no cures and the cause for this disease is unknown. This disorder is not classified as a autoimmune disease since the immune system does not attack itself at the hands of this disease. It is said that smoking increase the risk of a person developing Crohn's by twofold. Therefore, is best to stop smoking or not smoke at all in order to avoid developing this harmful disease.
It is a good idea to get tested by having a colonoscopy to see if there is cancer every few years, which should begin eight years after developing this illness.
