What is Ulcerative Colitis?

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic condition where the immune system attacks the colon lining, causing inflammation and ulcers. It can manifest as proctitis (rectum), pancolitis (entire colon), or left-sided colitis (descending colon). Symptoms include diarrhea, abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, and weight loss. If medication fails, ulcerative colitis treatment in Ahmedabad offers a long-term solution for lasting relief and improved quality of life.

FAQs

Is surgery the only option for severe ulcerative colitis?
Surgery is typically considered when medications no longer work or if there’s a risk of complications like colon cancer, severe bleeding, or perforation. However, Dr. Kaushal Anand, an expert in ulcerative colitis surgery in Ahmedabad will thoroughly assess your condition and explore all possible treatments before recommending surgery.
How long does it take to recover from ulcerative colitis surgery?
Recovery time varies depending on the type of surgery. Minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures often allow patients to return to normal activities within 4-6 weeks. I provide a personalized post-surgery care plan to ensure a smooth and speedy recovery.
Will I need a colostomy bag after surgery?
Not always. Procedures like ileoanal pouch surgery usually allow waste to pass, avoiding needing a permanent colostomy bag. However, in some cases, a temporary or permanent ileostomy may be necessary. I will discuss all options with you in detail later on.
What are the risks of ulcerative colitis surgery?
Like any surgery, ulcerative colitis surgery in Ahmedabad carries risks such as infection, bleeding, or complications with the pouch (if applicable). However, my expertise in advanced surgical techniques minimizes these risks, while my team provides comprehensive post-operative care to ensure the best outcomes.
Can ulcerative colitis come back after surgery?
Surgery removes the affected part of the colon, so ulcerative colitis cannot recur in that area. However, patients with ileoanal pouches may occasionally experience pouchitis (inflammation of the pouch), which can be managed with medication and lifestyle changes.
