I don't recall anyone here having that problem. There are several case study reports of patients with metastatic cutaneous lesions caused by Crohn's. It is an extraintestinal manifestation of Crohn's. Does your son have such a lesion?

Yes . It is genital metastatic Crohn's and it is not lessening and he has repeated office visits with his doctor which involves steroid injections and antibiotics. It is very painful and the last 2 years have been the worst.
