Bloating is inevitable as inflammation starts to build up in the intestines. In many cases, extreme bloating is the first visible sign of Crohn’s disease. Clothing may become painful or uncomfortable to wear as it presses down on the abdomen, causing pressure. Excess gas and tummy gurgles or sounds may also accompany bloating. Bloating is worse when Crohn’s disease is active, or when a flare-up occurs. It may take place in both the upper and lower parts of the abdomen.
