Can people die from ulcerative colitis?
With the therapies available today, it is possible to control the illness and avoid the main complications. It is recommended that people affected by ulcerative colitis have regular examinations, which can help rule out the presence of illnesses that occur in them more frequently than in healthy patients. Among the examinations recommended, colonoscopy is definitely important. In a colonoscopy, a small, fibre optic tube is inserted into the rectal tract so that the colon can be looked at closely.
