Is anyone out there aware of any data indicating the average length of time it takes to have ongoing inflammation before intestinal fibrosis sets in and causes strictures?
 
I have no idea.

My Crohn's symptoms began with my appendectomy, and it was almost one year exactly between the date I had my appendix out and the date I had my first small-bowel resection, in which they removed a stricture.

My guess is about twelve months, but YMMV.
