Ulcerative colitis is a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It affects your child's large intestine (colon) and rectum (where stool is stored before leaving the body). Ulcerative colitis causes swelling, bleeding, and sometimes sores in this part of the digestive tract. No one knows what causes ulcerative colitis, but your child's symptoms can be managed.
