How Do You Treat Colitis Using Home Remedies?
Chronic colitis can have some severe symptoms. Ulcerative colitis is the worst with abdominal cramping, diarrhea and bloody stool. The less severe plain colitis will not cause as much problems but when you start to have the abdominal cramping and bloody and watery stool, it is time to see a doctor. The main causes of colitis are indigestion, prolonged constipation, stress, unhealthy diet, medication, and allergies to certain foods. Colitis starts in the lower intestine and, if not treated, works its way upwards. Ulcerative colitis results in open sores in the large intestine and if not treated properly the results can be as bad as frequent watery and bloody stool, fever, nausea and severe weight loss. Often time’s people with severe colitis will become malnourished because when having a flare-up it can be difficult to maintain a healthy diet. There are ways to ease and treat flare-ups by using healthy home remedies but always remember to see your doctor before the colitis gets too bad
