Share WeedMany people with Crohn's disease have symptoms for years prior to the diagnosis. The usual onset is between 15 and 30 years of age but can occur at any age. Because of the 'patchy' nature of the gastrointestinal disease and the depth of tissue involvement, initial symptoms can be more vague than with ulcerative colitis. People with Crohn's disease will go through periods of flare-ups and remission. Get more facts about Crohn's disease from Wikipedia, the free online encyclopedia that is written collaboratively by volunteers.

The swelling extends deep into the lining of the affected organ.
