Regional Enteritis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Regional enteritis is a chronic inflammation of the digestive tract that can affect different segments of the intestine, frequently the end of the small intestine. It runs through periods of activity and of calm, and involves the deep layers of the intestinal wall.
Common symptoms: abdominal pain, diarrhea, fatigue, loss of appetite, and, in some cases, weight loss.
When to see a doctor? When digestive discomfort is recurrent, intense, or accompanied by warning signs such as bleeding or unexplained weight loss.
Which specialist treats it? Its follow-up falls primarily to the gastroenterologist, with support from the internist or the general practitioner, and from the general surgeon when the case requires it. With digestive symptoms that do not improve, it is advisable to have them evaluated by a professional.
