Gastrointestinal Issues - The Unsettling Signs of Vasculitis
Advertisements

Vasculitis can impact the gastrointestinal (GI) system, leading to a variety of symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and blood in the stool. Inflammation of the blood vessels supplying the GI tract can result in inadequate blood flow, causing damage to the lining of the digestive system and the organs involved.

It is essential to monitor any GI symptoms and discuss them with a healthcare provider, as they can help determine if vasculitis is the cause. Early detection and treatment can help alleviate these symptoms and prevent further damage to the GI system. (10)
