Did You Know? IBD is a disease with an unknown cause. Some agent or a combination of agents -- bacteria, viruses, antigens -- triggers the bodys immune system to produce an inflammatory reaction in the intestinal tract. It could also be that the bodys own tissue causes an autoimmune response. Whatever causes it, the reaction continues without control and damages the intestinal wall, leading to diarrhea and abdominal pain. --WebMD
