Hello, Thanks for the query to H.C.M.. Forum. May be due to , Ulcerative colitis, Tubercular lesion. All the symptoms mentioned in the query don't indicate towards Crohn's disease or Irritable bowel syndrome. In Crohn's there develops pain in right quadrant and mass is palpable While in IBS symptoms are constipation followed by diarrhea. Get in blood also for E S R , c b c. Good luck. Dr. HET
