How to Take Control of Crohn’s Flare-Ups
Adjust to life with Crohn’s
Living with a chronic illness is never easy, but Crohn’s disease is manageable after making these and other adjustments. Never sacrifice quality of life or live in fear of flare-ups. Packing extra underwear and moist towelettes is an easy solution for going out, and most individuals with Crohn’s disease carry a card that informs establishments of their situation.
Aside from making periodic adjustments, life should continue as normal. Finding pleasure in the normal can help individuals feel that they are not living with a chronic illness, and can be psychologically rewarding. Even through flare-ups, life with Crohn’s disease can be perfectly manageable, and life can go on as normal after diagnosis.
