A member asked:
If crohn's disease is not in remission can an ileostomy reversa stilll be done?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No : If bowel all inflamed then it is hard for the bowels to be sewn/stapled together because they won't heal. Medications you take to halt the inflammation also prevent healing.
