The common man may view Crohn's disease as a singularity when in reality the disease itself has several different forms.
*'''Crohn's colitis''' is inflammation confined to the colon. The prevailing symptoms here are bloody diarrhea and abdominal pains
*'''Crohn's enteritis'' is inflamation in only the small intestine. Abdominal pains, diarrhea, and obstruction of the small intestine can result from this form
*'''Crohn's terminal ileitis''' occurs in the very end of the small intestine right before the colon. The generic symptoms of abdominal pain, diarrhea and obstruction of the small intestine occur
*'''Crohn's entero-colitis''' and '''Crohn's ileo-colitis''' refer the inflammation in both the large and small intestine. This is the most extreme version of Chron's disease and a combination of all symptoms is typical
