Diverticulitis typically occurs in the colon, particularly in the sigmoid colon, which is the lower part of the large intestine. It arises when diverticula, small pouches that can form in the intestinal wall, become inflamed or infected. While it primarily affects the sigmoid colon, diverticulitis can occur in other areas of the colon as well. Symptoms often include abdominal pain, fever, and changes in bowel habits.
