WARNING Eating These 7 Foods Could WORSEN Your Diverticulitis!

Diverticulitis is a condition that occurs when small, bulging pouches (called diverticula) in the digestive tract become inflamed or infected. These pouches typically form in the colon (large intestine) and are common, especially in people over the age of 40. The presence of diverticula without inflammation or infection is called diverticulosis, while diverticulitis refers specifically to the inflamed or infected state. Causes: Blockage of the diverticula by stool or undigested food particles, leading to bacterial growth. Weak spots in the colon wall that bulge outward over time. Symptoms: Abdominal pain, often on the lower left side. Fever and chills. Nausea and vomiting. Changes in bowel habits (constipation or diarrhea). Bloating or tenderness in the abdomen. Risk Factors: Low-fiber diet. Aging (higher risk after age 40). Obesity. Sedentary lifestyle. Smoking. Certain medications (e.g., NSAIDs, steroids). Diagnosis: Physical examination. Imaging tests like CT scans to identify inflamed or infected pouches. Blood tests to check for infection or inflammation. Treatment: Mild Cases: Rest, dietary adjustments (e.g., clear liquids progressing to high-fiber foods). Antibiotics to treat infection. Pain relievers (as recommended by a doctor). Severe Cases or Complications: Hospitalization for IV antibiotics and fluids. Surgery (if complications like abscesses, perforation, or recurring diverticulitis occur). Prevention: High-fiber diet: Include whole grains, fruits, and vegetables to prevent constipation and reduce pressure in the colon. Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of fluids. Regular exercise: Promotes healthy bowel function. Avoid smoking: Reduces risk of diverticulitis and other digestive issues.
