Pan procto colitis is a severe inflammatory condition affecting the entire colon and rectum, characterized by inflammation of the mucosal lining. It is often associated with inflammatory bowel diseases like ulcerative colitis or can be a reaction to infections or certain medications. Symptoms typically include abdominal pain, diarrhea, rectal bleeding, and urgency to defecate. Treatment usually involves anti-inflammatory medications, immunosuppressants, or biologics to manage inflammation and alleviate symptoms.
