A lifestyle factor which contributes to the remission of Crohn’s disease (CD) is physical activity. The effect seems to positively impact the disease’s symptoms, improving the quality of life, especially on patients in remission. Due to the lack of clinical studies about the effects of physical activity on active CD patients, the purpose of the present case study was to record the influence of swimming training (aerobic type of exercise) on an athlete with active CD. In this study participated a 22-year-old male, who is an elite swimmer and who was diagnosed in 2019 with CD. The research was conducted over the last three years (2019–2022). Both the athlete and doctor consented to the clinical examinations by the author. According to the present study, immediate medical examination and the prescription of anti-TNF-α therapy is probably the most appropriate solution for someone who is diagnosed with CD symptoms. Moreover, patient participation in any sport activity is discouraged because of the potential danger of exacerbation of the symptoms. Therefore, for the sake of patient safety, physical activity should only be encouraged when the disease is in remission.
