Pencil thin stool is not a sign of Crohn's disease.
According to the medical literature, pencil thin stool, also known as low caliber stool, is not considered a sign of Crohn's disease. Crohn's disease is a condition that affects the digestive tract, but it does not specifically cause the stool to become pencil thin. It's important to note that changes in stool shape or size can occur for various reasons, and if you have concerns, it's best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
