Turn to East Cooper Colorectal Surgery for diagnosis and treatment of Crohn’s disease in Mount Pleasant. The symptoms of Crohn’s can be debilitating, but our goal is to enable you to lead a full
and healthy life.
Crohn’s disease is a type of inflammatory bowel disease that impacts the digestive tract. Although Crohn’s can affect any part of the digestive tract, from the mouth to anus, it most commonly occurs at the end
of the small intestine where it meets the colon. It appears in small patches and is able to completely permeate the wall of the bowel. When the condition becomes severe, Crohn’s disease surgery may be recommended to remove the damaged areas within
the digestive tract.
Crohn’s disease symptoms include chronic diarrhea, abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, unintended weight loss, and unexplained fatigue. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, we encourage you to reach out to
us so we can diagnose the issue and provide the necessary treatment. Contact East Cooper Colorectal Surgery to schedule an appointment.
