    Inflammatory bowel disease is a chronic condition characterized by relapsing inflammation of the bowel that may be due to an abnormal immune response. There are two main forms: Crohn's disease, which causes full thickness inflammation that can occur anywhere along the digestive tract but commonly affects the ileum, and ulcerative colitis, which causes continuous inflammation limited to the innermost lining of the rectum and colon. Both can cause abdominal pain and bloody diarrhea.
