Will we able to cure from Crohn's disease? Yes of course can be cured. And I know that for sure that people definitely get shocked after reading this. And also you ask how it is possible? I speak this from knowledge and I have seen many people recovering from the disease very well and get cured from the disease.
If you find the symptoms of the Crohn's disease then don't get scared. It is not a dangerous disease; it can be kept under check with a few drugs and remedies. Some of the disease leads to the other disease and hence the immunity level of the person decreases so proper care is needed for a patient. And mostly surgery is needed at some point of time.
For people who don't know what this disease is - Basically it is the inflammation of the intestines or the G.I. track. And the medicines that you take normally suppress the immunity level of your body so to keep your body from harming itself (for more on this look up Auto Immune Disorders).This disease may cause and affect any part of your G.I track and it generally affect the pat that actually where small and large bowels meet.
As the disease moves from stage to stage the scarring and healing process can happen over each other and thus cause intestinal blockages. I have felt these blockages on patients; it feels like a ball when you touch their lower abdomen. These causes sever pain, nausea and diarrhea. Another symptom you will notice is weight loss since essential nutrients cannot be absorbed by the body.
The situation of the disease is different with different people. Some have the disease but feel 100% healthy, this is called remission where no symptom is seen. With some people all of a sudden there will be flare up's and symptoms will just pop out, this affects the quality of life. You may not be able to do a lot of things that you like in life.
Whatever the case help is always available and cure is possible. There are a number of remedies that will help you heal your intestinal tract like; diet plans, yoga and a few other therapies. Doctors are aware of these remedies but are not trained to suggest them to you. to make it simple Corporate pharmaceutical companies find that curing this disease is not a priority for them since they create drugs for remission which you would take for a long time till you can no longer take it and then you would have to go in for a surgery. Now can you see that Profit Making is all a pharmaceutical company is interested in.
Crohn's disease is relatively common, with approximately 1 in every 1500 people suffering from the condition, although it occurs slightly more often in women and in smokers. The disease causes inflammation of the lining of the walls of the digestive tract and can occur anywhere along its length; but is most often found in patches of the small and large intestine. Symptoms vary for person to person, both in severity and frequency . Some people have very mild symptoms and the disease can go undiagnosed for years. Others will have very severe, frequent attacks and will require hospitalization.
The symptoms are caused by the inflammation of the wall of the affected parts of the digestive tract. When the disease flares up these become red and swollen and often cause pain. The site and severity of the pain can vary, but it is often felt in the lower right side of the abdomen and can be mistaken for appendicitis. Ulceration of the lining of the gut can occur and you will then see blood in your feces.
For most suffers, diarrhea is a common symptom and this can often contain pus, mucus or blood. People say that they experience a strong feeling of needing to go to the toilet but when they get there nothing comes. Unsurprisingly, during a flare up sufferers can be really very ill with weight loss, fever and tiredness. Their health can be further affected if heavy bleeding has led to anemia, or if food cannot be absorbed properly leading to vitamin and mineral deficiency.
For patients who have had some of the above symptoms of diarrhea, stomach pains and weight loss for more than three to four weeks, Crohn's disease is suspected. Blood samples, stool specimens, endoscopic examinations of the small and large intestines, and barium enema and barium meal studies can often confirm or disprove the diagnosis of Crohn's disease. Biopsies are often taken from the affected areas.
Once Crohn's disease has been identified, treatment normally begins with medication. A group of drugs known as 5-aminosalicylates are the mainstay of treatment for people with mild symptoms. However, these may be ineffective in people with moderate or severe symptoms, and often steroids are then given, on a short term basis, to reduce inflammation and calm the condition. These are not used over the long term, because although highly effective, they do have unwanted side effects. In addition, other medication may be required on an ad hoc basis. For example antibiotics are sometimes needed to fight a secondary infection, or iron supplements used to treat anemia.
If medication fails to alleviate the symptoms or if complications have occurred, surgery may be required to remove the affected part of the gut or other obstructions. Indeed some 80% of all sufferers with moderate symptoms will require some surgery during the course of their treatment. In addition a diet of easily digestible food may be prescribed for a few weeks during a flare up to give the body a chance to rest, after which a normal diet is slowly re-introduced.
It is promising to note however that research and development into the disease continue and there are hopes that new drugs will become available in the near future. Until then most people with Crohn's disease cope very well with the condition and the majority are able to lead normal lives.
