Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory bowel disease that causes swelling of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The most commonly affected part of the GI tract is the lower portion of the small intestine, which is called the ileum, though any part can be affected from the mouth to the anus. The swelling extends into the lining of the affected organ and can cause pain and frequent emptying of the intestines, resulting in diarrhea.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a disease of the immune system. In RA, the immune system attacks the body's own healthy cells, mistaking them for cells that don't belong. This causes inflammation in the lining and connective tissues of the joints. RA may come on suddenly or appear slowly over time. Its symptoms may include pain, swelling, stiffness in the joints, and fatigue associated with the above symptoms.
