Ulcerative Colitis

Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
This inflammation produces tiny sores called ulcers on the lining of your colon. It usually begins in the rectum and spreads upward. It can involve your entire colon.
The ulcers may cause bleeding and discharge of mucus and pus.

What causes ulcerative colitis?

Immune system malfunction in an autoimmune disease like ulcerative colitis, it mistakenly attacks your own body. It sends in your white blood cells, which attack your intestinal lining. That leads to ongoing inflammation.

Heredity also seems to play a role in that ulcerative colitis is more common in people who have family members with the disease.
