The essential guide to understanding - and treating - IBD
Manage episode 419926995 series 3343401
Inflammatory Bowel Disease can be an incredible burden to bear - painful, embarrassing, isolating and, for many patients, as difficult to deal with mentally as it is to manage physically.
Today's guest is Dr. Erin Forster, a gastroenterologist from the Medical University of South Carolina, and she's here to let you know that it doesn't have to be that way. IBD conditions - particularly Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis - can be treated, especially nowadays, with a surprisingly large range of medications and life strategies that can make a real difference for you.
