Can an old crohn's disease flare up 2 weeks after i stop bleeding cause another bleeding flare up from a 3 rib fracture 3 days after the first flare up?

Possible: Crohn's disease can flare up and be off and on. If you have continuing symptoms, a gastroenterologist is best qualified to evaluate,advise and treat you.
