Ayurvedic Treatment for Ileitis (Inflammation of the Ileum) - Symptoms, Causes & Herbal Remedies

Ileitis is a rare condition in which there is an inflammation of the ileum. It is often caused by Crohn's disease. However, it may be caused by the variety of other diseases. The clinical presentation of ileitis may vary from an acute and self-limited form of right lower quadrant pain or diarrhoea, as in majority of cases of bacterial ileitis, but some conditions like infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis follow a debilitating course complicated by obstructive symptoms, haemorrhage and extra-intestinal symptoms.

Crohn's ileitis is a form of Crohn's disease and causes inflammation in the ileum (the last part of the intestine). Crohn's disease is thought to account for around 30% of cases of Crohn's disease. It is considered among the groups of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).

It is common for people with Crohn's disease to be diagnosed with more than one type of the condition if inflammation is present in several places in GI tract.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF ILEITIS?

In some people with Ileitis, only the last segment of the small intestine (ileum) is affected while in other cases, the disease is confined to the colon which is a part of large intestine. The most common areas affected by this disease are last part of the small intestine and the colon.

Symptoms are:

  • Cramping pain in the right lower part of middle of the abdomen.
  • Diarrhoea
  • Fatigue
  • Significant weight loss
  • Blood in the stools
  • Fever
  • Mouth sores

WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF ILEITIS?

According to modern medicine, the exact cause of ileitis is not known. Previously, diet and stress were suspected, but now doctors know that these are the factors that trigger ileitis but don't cause ileitis. According to Ayurveda, ileitis is caused when Vata dosha is pushes pitta dosha into the colon causing inflammation. The nervous system controls stress response. When stress is high from an increase of stimulation from prana, the first signs of the development of Crohn's disease are seen. The patient, at this stage may experience early symptoms of digestive upsets such as gas and constipation, patient may have mild systemic dryness and feeling of weakness. As the disease continues, white blood cells invade the intestinal lining and produce inflammatory toxins causing chronic tissue swelling, injury and ulceration.

Ayurvedic treatment includes the treatment of Vata and Pitta in the digestive tract throughout time of the treatment because ileitis roots back to sensitivity towards stress and anxiety.
