If the condition of colitis is not particularly severe, you can eat some Chinese toon sprouts in moderation.

Chinese toon contains aromatic organic compounds, which can invigorate the spleen, stimulate the appetite, clear heat, promote dampness, and detoxify. It can help treat diseases such as enteritis, dysentery, and urinary system infections. However, it is important not to eat too much at once, as it may cause abdominal distension and worsen diarrhea. It is important to maintain a balanced nutrition and arrange your diet reasonably.

Can you eat garlic with proctitis?

Patients with proctitis can eat garlic, but they should also avoid consuming large amounts of garlic, as excessive garlic can easily irritate the rectum and exacerbate the inflammation. It is recommended that patients with proctitis eat foods that are easy to digest and non-irritating, such as white rice porridge and millet porridge. They should avoid spicy, irritating, and greasy foods. It is also necessary to quit smoking and drinking, and to avoid strong tea and coffee as much as possible. Patients with proctitis can take oral medications to regulate the intestinal flora for treatment; the choice of specific medications should be based on the doctor's clinical experience.

Difference between colitis and rectal cancer

The differences between proctitis and rectal cancer are that under endoscopy, proctitis can present with patchy congestion, with or without mucus, and unclear vascular patterns. In contrast, rectal cancer can present with a protruding mass, which may have an uneven surface, cauliflower-like changes, and possibly congested erosion, among other conditions. It could also simply be a very superficial lesion, and the texture is often more brittle, possibly involving the entire circumference of the colon, preventing the passage of a colonoscope. Clinically, proctitis may present with symptoms such as increased frequency of bowel movements, incomplete evacuation, and sticky stools that may contain mucus. Rectal cancer, on the other hand, may present with symptoms such as bloody stools, positive fecal occult blood, abdominal pain, etc.

Rectal Inflammation Symptoms and Treatment

The main symptoms of proctitis include abdominal pain, diarrhea, or the presence of white mucus in the stool. A colonoscopy can reveal hyperemia, edema, erosion, or mucus adhesion on the rectal mucosa, leading to a diagnosis of chronic proctitis. For treatment, oral probiotics can be used to adjust the intestinal flora, helping to alleviate symptoms and treat the disease. Additionally, combining traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment methods, oral herbal medicine can be used. External treatments in Chinese medicine, such as herbal enemas or hydrotherapy, can also be effective for chronic proctitis. These methods allow the herbs to directly reach and contact the lesion surface, acting directly on the affected colon mucosa for a more targeted treatment.

Treatment of proctitis

Proctitis is relatively common in clinical settings, especially in the department of gastroenterology. It generally presents as abdominal discomfort and abnormal bowel movements. Abdominal discomfort typically manifests as discomfort in the lower left abdomen, and abnormal bowel movements may include increased frequency and looser stool texture. The treatment of proctitis generally falls into two categories: general treatment and medication. General treatment includes maintaining smooth bowel movements, eating smaller meals more frequently, and ensuring that the stool remains soft. For medication, options include oral medications and topical treatments. Oral medications can soften stools, protect the intestinal mucosa, and control inflammation, among other effects. Topical medications may be chosen to protect the intestinal mucosa and prevent itching, and generally, they are quite effective, so patients need not worry too much.

Can I eat eggs with colitis?

If you have colitis, you should pay attention to how eggs are prepared. You can eat steamed egg custard or boiled eggs, but avoid scrambled eggs, as they are too greasy and not easy to digest and absorb, which can increase the burden on the intestines and exacerbate the symptoms of colitis. If you suffer from colitis, you should avoid frequently consuming spicy, irritating, or overly greasy foods. Opt for a bland diet to prevent the condition from worsening. When the condition is severe, timely medication treatment is necessary, including mesalazine and Kangfuxin solution. Using Kangfuxin solution for enema can protect the intestinal mucosa and the medication works directly on the affected area, which is very effective. (Please use medication under the guidance of a doctor)
