However, hematuria cannot always be detected by the naked eye, and can also be a symptom of other conditions such as kidney stones and urinary tract infection. If you experience hematuria or any of the other bladder cancer symptoms listed below, let your doctor know: 1  Painful urination. 2  Frequent urination.
Summary. 1  Crohn's disease is characterized by transmural inflammation involving any part of the gastrointestinal tract. 2  The diagnosis of Crohn's disease is based on a constellation of clinical, endoscopic, radiographic, and histological findings, with negative stool cultures. The differential diagnosis of Crohn's disease includes infectious colitis, diverticulitis, celiac sprue, intestinal lymphoma, radiation enteropathy, NSAID use, and ischemic colitis. Treatment options depend on the severity of disease as well as the behavior of disease.
Both men and women can have Crohn's disease. It can also run in families. About 20 percent (1 in 5) of people who have Crohn's disease have a blood relative with some form of inflammatory bowel disease, usually a brother or a sister, and sometimes a parent and child. Crohn's disease is usually diagnosed in people between the ages of 20 - 30. About 25 percent of new Crohn's disease diagnoses are made in persons who are younger than 20 years of age. When given proper medical care, most people who have Crohn's disease are able to lead long and productive lives.
