A member asked:
Help please? what is the sickness of having growth in the intestines?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Please clarify: Are you asking about over-growth of bacteria, fungi etc? Are you referring to a mass or masses in the intestines? Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth might be associated with Crohn's disease. celiac disease, diverticulitis etc. I suggest that you resubmit with clarification.
