Weight Loss

The symptoms of Crohn’s disease will cause you to weight loss. Persistent vomiting and diarrhea will cause you to lose weight. The damage that Crohn’s disease does to your small intestine inhibits your small intestine’s ability to absorb nutrients, which also causes weight loss.

Other factors that cause you to lose weight if you have Crohn’s disease are mouth ulcers and stomach pain. Mouth ulcers make it difficult for you to chew food. Stomach pain, in addition to nausea and vomiting, makes eating an unpleasant experience.
