Common "Chronic Ileitis" queries answered by top doctors | iCliniq

Chronic Ileitis

Crohn's disease frequently results in ileitis or ileum inflammation. The symptoms of Crohn's disease include exhaustion, anemia, weight loss, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. While some people live symptom-free most of their lives, others may suffer from severe chronic symptoms that never go away. There is no correct management for Crohn's disease. The illness's progression is slowed by drugs such as immunosuppressants and steroids. A patient might need surgery if these are ineffective.
