Understanding Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) shows the two main types of IBD: Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. In particular, the areas of the colon affected and a close-up image of what they look like inside the body are shown. This anatomical chart also provides a graphic of the potential complications of IBD in the context of the body, such as osteoporosis, gallstones, colorectal cancer, perforated colon, liver disease, kidney stones, strictures, and inflammation of the skin.
The chart describes signs and symptoms, risk factor, and tests and diagnosis. In addition, treatments, medications, and lifestyle changes that can help control symptoms are discussed.
