Thickening of colon in Crohn's (found on CT or x-ray with
barium
Barium enema
Barium ingestion
Upper gi and small bowel series
) is from inflammation of a colon wall (maybe someone mentioned a cobblestone appearance).
Another cause is
systemic
Systemic lupus erythematosus
Systemic lupus erythematosus rash on the face
sclerosis, I'm not sure, if, and how often, Crohn's and SS would go together. If any concerns, biopsy (during
colonoscopy
) would only tell what it is.
