Ulcerative Colitis (UC) is a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes long-lasting inflammation and sores (ulcers) in the lining of the colon (large intestine) and rectum. It primarily affects the colon's inner lining, leading to symptoms like abdominal pain, diarrhea, and rectal bleeding. Here's a detailed overview of the condition:

1. Causes of Ulcerative Colitis
While the exact cause is unknown, UC is believed to result from an abnormal immune system response. Factors that contribute to the development of UC include:

Genetic factors: A family history of IBD increases the risk.
Immune system: UC may be triggered when the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells in the colon, leading to inflammation.
Environmental factors: Diet, stress, and infections may play a role in triggering or exacerbating symptoms.

2. Symptoms
The severity of symptoms can vary, but common ones include:

Abdominal pain and cramping: Often in the lower abdomen.
Diarrhea: Frequently accompanied by blood or pus.
Rectal bleeding: Blood in the stool or on toilet paper.
Urgency to have bowel movements: A feeling of needing to go even when the bowels are empty.
Fatigue: Due to chronic inflammation and nutrient malabsorption.
Weight loss: Due to poor nutrient absorption.
Fever: In severe cases or during flare-ups.
Anemia: From blood loss over time.

3. Types of Ulcerative Colitis
UC is classified based on the extent and location of inflammation:

Ulcerative proctitis: Inflammation limited to the rectum.
Proctosigmoiditis: Inflammation of the rectum and lower part of the colon (sigmoid).
Left-sided colitis: Inflammation extends from the rectum through the sigmoid colon and into the descending colon.
Extensive colitis: Involves the entire colon.
Pancolitis: Inflammation affects the entire colon, from the rectum to the cecum.

4. Diagnosis
The diagnosis of ulcerative colitis is made based on the following:

Medical history and physical exam: Symptoms like diarrhea and abdominal pain are key.
Colonoscopy: Allows direct visualization of the colon and rectum, helping to assess the severity and extent of inflammation.
Biopsy: Tissue samples taken during a colonoscopy can confirm UC by showing characteristic inflammation patterns.
Stool tests: To rule out infections.
Blood tests: To check for anemia and inflammation (e.g., elevated C-reactive protein or ESR).

Lifestyle Modifications:
Dietary changes: A low-residue or low-fiber diet may be recommended during flare-ups to reduce irritation. Some patients may benefit from eliminating certain foods.
Stress management: Stress can exacerbate symptoms, so techniques like mindfulness, yoga, or therapy can be helpful.
Eating a balanced, nutrient-rich diet
Avoiding smoking (smoking increases the risk of UC and worsens symptoms)
