See the doctor.: Crohn's is a chronic illness which has remissions and relapses. Close follow up with Gastroenterologist/ Surgeon team is essential to keep condition under control. There are also new immunotherapy treatments to decrease relapse rate available for Crohn's depending on patient's individual condition. This finding merits follow up with his doctor.
