Colitis

Colitis describes inflammation of the inner lining of the colon and can be associated with diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating, and blood in the stool. People with short bowel syndrome cannot absorb enough water, vitamins, minerals, protein, fat, calories, and other nutrients from food. What nutrients the small intestine has trouble absorbing depends on which section of the small intestine has been damaged or removed.

This inflammation may be due to a variety of reasons.

  • Infection
  • Loss of blood supply to the colon (ischemia)
  • Allergic Reactions
  • Invasion of the colon wall with lymphocytic white blood cells or collagen
