Diverticulitis

Diverticulitis

Diverticulitis is a common digestive disorder that occurs when pouches or sacs, called diverticula, form in the wall of the large intestine and become inflamed or infected. The condition is usually caused by a diet low in fiber and high in processed foods. Symptoms of diverticulitis can include abdominal pain, cramping, constipation, and diarrhoea. In more severe cases, infection and abscess formation can occur. Treatment of diverticulitis typically involves antibiotics and rest. In some cases, surgery may be necessary to remove the diverticula or to correct any complications such as a fistula or abscess. Diet modifications are also important in managing diverticulitis, as a high-fiber diet can help to prevent symptoms from occurring or recurring. This may include eating more fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and legumes. To reduce the risk of developing diverticulitis, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle. This includes eating a diet rich in fiber and exercising regularly. It is also important to avoid smoking and drinking alcohol, as both can increase the risk of complications.
