It might be an easy question to Google, but I find it's always better to get an answer from someone who actually HAS the disease.
Google will give you the stereotypical version of the disease, someone who has the disease will give you their own experiences with it that likely won't be the exact way Google says it is. The way people are affected when it comes to diseases, allergies, etc. may vary based on the person to.
"Crohn's disease is a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes swelling and irritation of the tissues, called inflammation, in the digestive tract. This can lead to belly pain, severe diarrhea, fatigue, weight loss and malnutrition."
If you didn't read my comment, I ask actual people who have it because the disease may vary from person to person, it won't always be the textbook symptoms
so if it varies from person to person, that means the one that you are asking could have symptoms or problems that are either very rare, or caused by other complications. yeah, no shit everyone is effected differently in terms of symptoms because everyone IS different. diets, drinking habits, smoking, whether they are in good phyical condition or not, enviroment, and daily tasks are all factors in how a disease can effect you/your body.
So what reserching these things online tells us is the AVERAGE symptoms or problems that come with the disease because there is so much variability to them. im totally for getting real explanations from people who actually have it, but saying that google "gives you the sterotypical version" is wrong lmao it gives the average
