A member asked:
Does gastroenteritis always lead to something like appendicitis, ibs, crohn's , etc.?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: But it may cause colitis-like protracted symptoms that may associate malabsorption. Sometimes the original condition is misdiagnosed as gastroenteritis, but it is the onset of an inflammatory bowel disease: Crohn' s for example.

No.: Gastroenteritis is rarely associated with any of those. It does not cause them.
