HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if this is the pure crohn's disease then this need to be managed accordingly keeping mind its severity, and clinical symptoms, underlying cause of the disease is highly important there is no cure for this disease still underlying cause and classification are matter of concern, some time surgical treatment may helps but one should be qualified for this, one need to go through several tests, life style changes may give better results, hope this information helps, take care.
