Hi everyone. Had a question concerning skin irritation and acne concerning crohns. My daughter is currently being tested and has developed a nasty eye irritation and severe acne. Are these signs of crohns?:sign0085:
Thanks!

Hi Diane and welcome,

Eye irritation can be seen in crohn's but then it is more commonly seen in those without crohn's. As far as I'm aware acne is only really noted by those chronies on certain medications which cause acne eg steroids.

The doctors will be led by her other symptoms and arrange tests accordingly..hopefully.

Good luck with your diagnostic journey.
