A member asked:

I was sent to the er and diagnosed with ileitis. how common is bacterial or viral ileitis compared to a chronic condition? i've also been fighting an upper respiratory infection for a couple weeks and wonder if it is possible for that infection to travel

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Neither,need tests: One visit to ER is not enough to diagnose ' ileitis ' . See you family doctor or gastroenterologist for further investigation , to make sure you do not have Crohn's disease, yes infection like TB,viral & fungal possible Your URI may not be related.
