Ulcerative Colitis is a disease of the large intestine ( colon ) that includes characteristic open sores and ulcers. The main symptom of this disease is abdominal pain with constant diarrhea which is often bloody.
This disease typically affects females more than males and the peak incidence is between 15 and 25 years of age.
It is not unusual for ulcerative colitis to be intermittent which means it can come and go, and for no apparent reason.
