How can I tell if my child has Crohn’s disease?
Unfortunately, Crohn’s disease can be difficult to diagnose as it mimics several other gastrointestinal conditions. Plus, Crohn’s disease can have a gradual or sudden onset. Your child may have trouble communicating the severity and type of their symptoms. For example, they may embarrassed by frequent diarrhea and try to hide it. One way to tell if something is amiss with your child is to note any changes in their eating habits and personality.
