Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a chronic condition that can significantly impact the digestive system. But to what extent can IBD cause lasting damage to the gut and its function? While the full scope of potential damage would typically be explored in detail, this video's script was not provided. However, generally, understanding IBD's impact involves: ► Exploring the chronic inflammation and its effects on the intestinal lining. ► Discussing complications like strictures, fistulas, and increased cancer risk. ► Highlighting how different types of IBD (Crohn's, Ulcerative Colitis) manifest their damage. ► Considering the long-term management and strategies to mitigate gut damage. #InflammatoryBowelDisease, #IBD, #GutHealth, #ChronicIllness, #DigestiveHealth
