I am going through the process of diagnosis for unknown abdominal cramps, severe nausea, constipation, ect.
I found some red bumps on my arm, in a way they kinda look like zits but the closer I look it has like a little hole in the top. If that makes any sense, lol. Its a fairly small bump but I have like 10-15 of them on my arm and some on my legs and groin area. Anyone else with crohns have this? Thanks!

I doubt that this is related to Crohn's. It could be a number of things though. Anything from a skin disorder, to medication reactions, even a remote possibility of shingles.

I'm only guessing of course, you'll need a formal diagnosis, but I really doubt that it's Crohn's related.

I've had a similar condition at varying times in my life, it seems to come and go, and it's easy to ignore (doesn't hurt, doesn't itch as long as I don't scratch...) I can't say it's not an after affect of the auto-immune response your body has because of the Crohn's (i.e. eczema,mild psoriasis...etc.) But if it gets worse or is bothering you I'd bring it up to your GP.
