Crohn’s Disease (CD) is a chronic intestinal inflammatory disorder, also called regional enteritis. CD has remission and exacerbation phases. Researchers are uncertain why does initial flare- up happens but it is thought to be a bacterial or viral infection (Harvard Health, 2007) .it usually involves the small and large intestines and can lead to malabsorption and malnutrition (lemone &Burke). Once started the symptoms are chronic and lifelong with periods of remission in between bouts of active symptoms. Diagnosing CD may be lengthy, requiring non – invasive as well as invasive tests. A check of the stool could indicate bleeding, a blood test might indicate anemia or the antibody associated with Crohn’s. Abdominal x ray could indicate intestinal wall thickening. Physicians may need to do colonoscopy, biopsy to diagnose the disease ( Harvard Heath). CD is classified as an inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) (Neighbors & Tannehill -jones, 2006).

Using a case study of an individual with Crohn’s disease, I will address how the CD impact on patient’s social, financial, and personal life, how patient
