Crohn's disease is a chronic form of inflammatory bowel disease that can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract but most commonly affects the ileum, colon, and rectum. Common gastrointestinal symptoms experienced by patients with Crohn's disease include abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, fatigue, vomiting, diarrhea, perianal disease, weight loss, and bloating.– According to Crohn's and Colitis Canada, there are approximately 129,000 Canadians living with Crohn's disease (one in 150 people), and it is estimated that 5,700 new cases of Crohn's disease are diagnosed each year.
