Ulcerative colitis is a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes long-lasting inflammation and ulcers in the digestive tract. Specifically, it affects the innermost lining of the large intestine (colon) and rectum. Unlike acute infections, the symptoms usually develop gradually and tend to follow a pattern of flare-ups and remission.
