Rectitis is quite common in clinical settings, and oral Intestine Inflammation Relief can generally be chosen for treatment without issues. Typically, the symptoms of rectitis include discomfort in the lower left abdomen and abnormal stools, particularly diarrhea, where the stool is watery or there is a feeling of rectal prolapse among others. For patients with rectitis, besides choosing oral Intestine Inflammation Relief for treatment, it's important to pay attention to diet and rest, ensure smooth bowel movements, and avoid constipation. Additionally, other oral medications can be used, such as laxatives and drugs to protect the intestinal mucosa, which generally have a good effect in treating inflammation of the intestines. However, rectitis generally does not involve symptoms of bloody stools. If a patient experiences bloody stools during treatment, commonly referred to as stools with blood, it is advised to continue diagnosis and treatment at a local hospital. It is particularly suggested to complete a colonoscopy to further rule out conditions such as hemorrhoids or intestinal tumors.

Can proctitis cause frequent urination and urgency?

Proctitis generally does not cause frequent urination or urinary urgency. Proctitis mainly causes symptoms such as the passing of mucous stools, purulent bloody stools, and a sense of incomplete evacuation after defecation. If a patient experiences frequent urination and urinary urgency, they should visit the urology department of a regular hospital. It's possible that there could be urinary tract stones or an infection, requiring a routine urine analysis and ultrasonic examination of the urinary system. In addition, for proctitis, it is necessary to take oral medication to adjust the intestinal flora. Attention should also be paid to the diet, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, and opting for bland, easily digestible foods.

What are the symptoms of colitis?

Proctitis is an inflammation that occurs in the mucosa of the rectum. Typical symptoms include abdominal pain, diarrhea, a feeling of heaviness around the anus, and urgency followed by a sensation of incomplete evacuation. More severe inflammation can also lead to the presence of mucus and bloody pus in the stool. Bleeding from the rectum is another typical symptom, with the amount of bleeding related to the severity of the inflammation. Severe inflammation can directly cause pain in the anus and rectum. Abdominal pain and diarrhea may alternate, and long-term proctitis can also lead to loss of appetite, weight loss, fever, nausea, and vomiting. It is necessary to promptly perform a colonoscopy to understand the severity of the lesions and actively provide symptomatic treatment.

Can proctitis cause discomfort in the rectum?

As to whether proctitis will cause discomfort in the rectum, it depends on the specific situation. If it is only mild proctitis, generally, it does not cause discomfort for the patient. However, if the proctitis is severe and accompanied by conditions such as rectal ulcers, rectal discomfort is likely to occur, and the patient may experience symptoms such as pain and a sense of urgency followed by incomplete defecation. In severe cases, fever may also occur. Once a patient develops proctitis, it is advised to promptly complete an electronic colonoscopy examination. If necessary, tissue should be taken for a pathological biopsy to rule out the possibility of malignant tumors in the rectum.

Why does colitis cause excessive farting?

If proctitis is accompanied by excessive flatulence, it could be due to the consumption of foods that produce gas or it may be because the inflammation of the rectum leads to poor digestion, which causes increased flatulence. In such cases, oral medications that regulate the intestinal flora should be taken to treat it, along with the use of mesalazine or sulfasalazine preparations for anti-inflammatory treatment. At the same time, attention should also be paid to diet, avoiding gas-producing foods like sweet potatoes, and avoiding spicy and stimulative foods. It is important to eat easily digestible, bland foods.
