IBDs are medical conditions that involve chronic inflammation of the digestive tract and can be quite debilitating. The most common IBDs are Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Both diseases share similar symptoms like diarrhea (sometimes with blood in the stool), abdominal pain, extreme fatigue, fever, and unintentional weight loss. Treatment includes medication, dietary changes, and, in some cases, surgery.
