Patient's question:
Hello! My father is 74 years old and has had diarrhea about 20 times in 24 hours, with pus and blood in his stool.Doctor's answer:
Crohn's disease is an autoimmune disorder, and the treatment methods are the same as those for ordinary ulcerative colitis. Based on your description, this condition requires smoking cessation, re-emphasizing nutrition and trace elements, as well as medication treatment. Anti-diarrheal medication should be used. In fact, having Crohn's disease is not terrifying; patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as symptoms are detected early and treated accordingly, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high.
