Surgery
If your symptoms do not improve with less invasive therapies and changes in lifestyle, surgery may be an appropriate option. According to the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation, approximately 75 percent of people with moderate to severe form of Crohn’s disease will need surgery at some point throughout their lives.
Some types of Crohn’s surgery include removing damaged parts of your gut and reconnecting healthy parts. Other methods may include repairing damaged tissue, treating deep infections, or managing scar tissue.
