Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes inflammation and ulceration in the innermost lining of the colon and rectum. Unlike Crohn’s disease, UC is limited to the colon and primarily affects the mucosal and submucosal layers.
Symptoms often occur in cycles of flare-ups and remission, ranging from mild to severe. Early diagnosis and treatment are critical to controlling inflammation, preventing complications, and improving quality of life.
Because UC is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disease, symptoms often come in cycles of flare-ups and remission.
The exact cause of UC is not fully understood, but several factors increase risk:
Abnormal Immune Response Targeting the Colon
Higher Risk if a First-degree Relative Has IBD
Infections, Smoking, and Other Factors That May Exacerbate Inflammation
UC is commonly diagnosed in young adults (15–30 years) and can also present in older adults (50–70 years).
