Ulcerative colitis (UC) is just another type of an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). IBD comprises a group of diseases that affect the gastrointestinal tract. UC occurs when the lining of the large intestine also called the colon, rectum, or both becomes inflamed.
This inflammation then further produces tiny sores called ulcers on the lining of your colon. It usually begins or happens in the rectum and spreads upward. It can involve the entire colon. The inflammation causes the bowel to move its contents rapidly and empty frequently. Ulcers are produced when the cells on the surface of the lining of your bowel die. The ulcers may cause bleeding and discharge of mucus and pus. While this disease affects people of all ages, most people are diagnosed between the ages of 15 and 35. After age 50, another small increase in diagnosis for this disease is seen, mostly in men.The seriousness of UC symptoms varies among affected people. The symptoms can also change over time.
People diagnosed with UC may experience periods of mild symptoms or no symptoms at all. This is called remission. However, symptoms can return and be severe. This is called a flare-up. Common symptoms of UC include:
