Crohn’s disease is a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes inflammation in the digestive tract. This in turn can lead to abdominal pain, severe diarrhoea, fatigue, weight loss, and malnutrition. The inflammation caused by the disease can be in different parts of the digestive tract, and it can spread. As such, it is a painful and debilitating condition.
At present, there is no cure for Crohn’s disease but there are conventional treatments that can help to reduce inflammation, prevent it coming back, and manage the pain. However, some sufferers have found that cannabis can also help. Cannabis has anti-inflammatory properties and many people use it to help them manage pain. There are many cannabis strains that may be able to assist, and you can browse a full list of them on this page.
