Ulcerative Colitis

These pictures show an example of a normal colon lining on the left - pink and healthy. On the right is an example of a patient with active ulcerative colitis. Note that the colon lining is very red and inflamed. You can see how this condition causes symptoms of abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, and diarrhea. Treatment varies with each individual case, but usually involves drugs to heal inflammation such as Asacol and Prednisone.
