What is Colitis?

Colitis is the term for inflammation of the colon or large bowel or intestine. The beginning of the colon is called the cecum. It begins in the lower right portion of the abdomen where the last part of the small intestine (ileum) empties into the large intestine.

In colitis the colon is usually quite red and swollen appearing when seen by colonoscopy (scope exam of the colon).

Chronic colitis is one of several types of inflammatory bowel disorders or IBD for short and should not be confused with IBS the term for irritable bowel syndrome.
