Overview
Crohn's Disease falls under Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). IBD is at least two, separate disorders that cause inflammation (redness and swelling) and ulceration (sores) of the small and large intestines. These two disorders are called ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Crohn's disease can occur anywhere in the digestive tract but is common in the lower small bowel (ileum) or large bowel.
