Some conditions cause stomach pain. Here's when to worry. In recent years, researchers have started to evaluate the role of certain diets in managing the symptoms of Crohn’s.

Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies and rheumatoid factor (RF) are two more common blood tests.
Plus, it's been treated with a 3M Scotchgard treatment that helps release stains easily and wicks away moisture. Nearly 2,000 reviewers give it top marks, too. "My grandkids love them for their beds.
