FAQS ABOUT ULCERATIVE COLITIS - INFUSION CENTER OF DE
Ulcerative colitis is relatively common, affecting about 1 in 500 people in the U.S. It’s a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often diagnosed between ages 15 and 30 but can occur at any age. It is more prevalent in developed countries and among people of European descent, requiring long-term management for symptom control.
It’s possible to live with ulcerative colitis without medication during remission, but medication is often crucial to manage inflammation and prevent complications. Without treatment, symptoms may worsen over time, increasing health risks. Work with your healthcare provider to find the best approach, including lifestyle changes and medical care.
Living with ulcerative colitis can be challenging due to symptoms like pain and fatigue, especially during flare-ups. However, proper treatment, dietary changes, and stress management can help control symptoms. Many people lead fulfilling lives with effective care and support. Building a strong healthcare plan and seeking community support can make it easier.
The exact cause of ulcerative colitis is unknown, but it is believed to result from an overactive immune response that mistakenly attacks the lining of the colon. Factors like genetics, environmental triggers, and an imbalance in gut bacteria may play a role. Stress and diet don’t directly cause ulcerative colitis but can worsen symptoms. Ongoing research aims to better understand its causes and improve treatments.
In Delaware, ulcerative colitis is diagnosed through medical history, blood and stool tests, and imaging like CT scans. A colonoscopy is often performed to examine the colon and take biopsies. Specialized centers, like the Infusion Center of DE, offer access to diagnostics and advanced care for effective management.
