Abstract

Crohn’s disease is gastrointestinal disease that affects from mouth to anus. The real cause about which is unknown. We conducted a survey to develop awareness among the postgraduate students of biotechnology about the disease. Questionnaire was distributed among 6 boys and 31 girls. All of the students were agreed that crohn’s disease is a bacterial disease and it is not common in them and their surrounding people. It cannot be treated properly by medicine and surgery however; few treatments are given to reduce its long term remission, signs and symptoms

Keywords: Crohn’s, IBD, Awareness, Survey.
