Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are two of the most common forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Hemorrhoids

Hemorrhoids are swollen veins that occur in the rectum or around the anus. Hemorrhoids, sometimes called piles, are extremely common, occur for a variety of reasons, and can be effectively treated in a number of ways.

The liver is the body’s second-largest organ next to the skin and performs several essential functions in the body. It can be affected by conditions such as hepatitis.
