Ileitis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Ileitis is inflammation of the ileum, the final section of the small intestine, and it can appear on its own or as part of broader inflammatory or infectious processes of the digestive system.
Which specialist treats it? The gastroenterologist is the one who studies this type of intestinal inflammation in detail, and in certain cases an assessment by the general surgeon may be required.
Frequent symptoms: It usually presents with abdominal pain, changes in bowel movements, bloating and, at times, fever or general discomfort.
When to see a doctor? When the abdominal pain is intense or the digestive symptoms drag on, the most prudent thing is to seek care to identify the cause and receive appropriate guidance.
