Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammation of the colon’s inner lining that leads to symptoms like abdominal cramps, rectal bleeding, and frequent loose stools. In Mumbai, Dr. Harshad Joshi provides targeted treatment options for ulcerative colitis, combining medical therapy with nutritional and lifestyle guidance.
Accurate diagnosis through colonoscopy and biopsy is vital for effective treatment. Depending on severity, therapies may include anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids, and biologics such as vedolizumab or infliximab. For resistant cases, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and advanced minimally invasive approaches can be considered.
Ulcerative colitis requires ongoing care to prevent relapses and improve bowel function. A structured plan under an experienced gastroenterologist ensures symptom control and reduces long-term colon cancer risk.
