Secondary colitis refers to inflammation of the colon that occurs as a result of another underlying condition, rather than being a primary disease itself. Common causes include infections (such as bacterial or viral), ischemia (reduced blood flow), or reactions to medications (like antibiotics). It can also occur due to systemic diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), where the colitis is a manifestation of the broader condition. Identifying and treating the underlying cause is essential for effective management.
