What is Ulcerative Colitis (UC)?

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes inflammation and ulcers in the inner lining of the large intestine (colon) and rectum. Unlike Crohn's disease, another form of IBD, UC only affects the innermost lining of the colon and has a continuous pattern of inflammation.

What is Ulcerative Colitis?

Causes of Ulcerative Colitis

The exact cause of ulcerative colitis remains unknown. However, several factors are believed to contribute to its development:

  • Immune System Dysfunction: A malfunction of the immune system is thought to play a key role. The body's immune system mistakenly attacks the healthy tissues in the colon, leading to inflammation and ulcers.
  • Genetics: Having a close relative with UC increases your risk of developing the condition.
  • Environmental Factors: Certain factors like diet, smoking, and exposure to certain bacteria or viruses might be potential triggers.
