Crohn's disease happens to be very painful. The stomach area becomes very fragile and sensitive to touch. The most common symptom is stomach cramping. It starts out as a slowly progressive stomach cramp that later turns into a long lasting cramp. Crohn's tends to cause excessive diarrhea that can result up to twenty or more times a day. When the disease becomes worse, the patient develops a high fever that can mean they have an infection. Due to the diarrhea, weight loss is very dangerous syptom. The patient loses their appetite and goes to the bathroom so frequently, it is hard to keep all the nurtients the body needs. They eventually lose so many blood cells, the patient may develop anemia. Anemia might occur due to the loss of blood cells that produce the iron in the body,the blood loss in the stools, or the inflammation in the intestines. Sometimes if the disease is more severe, the patient starts producing sores in their mouth. After a while, the anus starts to swell up because of the inflammation and diarrhea. Ulcers start to form in the deep layers of the skin causing the skin to rip in the anus. [[http://www.webmd.com/ibd-crohns-disease/crohns-disease/tc/crohns-disease-symptoms]].
