Ive noticed my left side of the stomach seems more swollen compared to the right side, and it's making me really uncomfortable, especially when I'm sitting. Plus, I'm dealing with constipation. What could be causing this?

View allI've had Crohn's disease since 2018 and my recent MRI and colonoscopy show my rectum has narrowed. I'm currently on mesalamine, azathioprine, and Shelcal livogen do you think I'll need surgery for this or can medication help reduce the risk of a rectum blockage?
If narrowing causes blockage risk or worsening symptoms, surgery may be needed—continue meds and monitor closely.

I'm experiencing some really uncomfortable symptoms like acidity and my abdomen feels bloated. I've also got a lot of excess gas and loose stools. Plus, every time I drink water, I need to urinate immediately, though the urine looks normal and there's no burning sensation. Does this sound like something I should be worried about? What's going on with me?
Avoid problem foods. If certain foods make your signs and symptoms worse, don't eat them. These may include alcohol, chocolate, caffeinated beverages such as coffee and sodas, medications that contain caffeine, dairy products, and sugar-free sweeteners such as sorbitol or mannitol. If gas is a problem for you, foods that might make symptoms worse include beans, cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli. Fatty foods also may be a problem for some people. Chewing gum or drinking through a straw can lead to swallowing air, causing more gas.
