Enteropathy

Enteropathy is a condition involving damage or abnormal changes to the lining of the small intestine, which impairs its ability to absorb nutrients properly. This can lead to symptoms like diarrhea, weight loss, and nutritional deficiencies. It may result from various causes, including infections, autoimmune diseases, or reactions to medications. The condition can be diagnosed through medical evaluations such as biopsies or blood tests, and treatment depends on the underlying cause. Managing enteropathy is important to restore intestinal function and improve overall health.
