Diverticulitis occurs when small pouches form in the wall of the large intestine (colon). ‘Diverticula' form when weak spots on the wall are under pressure. Eating a high-fiber diet, drinking plenty of fluids and exercising regularly is the best way to avoid being constipated, and prevent diverticulitis. Most people who have diverticulitis may not exhibit any symptoms; however, there can be an infection in the pouches.

&nbsp;

It is diagnosed by using a barium enema, or colonoscopy, and generally, painful diverticulitis is caused by Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Symptoms may include diarrhea and abdominal cramps, without any other sign of infection, or fever. Scheduling time for a bowel movement, not straining the body, being active and eating a fiber rich diet, or taking a fiber supplement, are the recommended to treat diverticulitis.

Conditions

"Condition" is a general term for particular abnormal diseases that negatively affect a part or all of the body. Conditions are not due to any external injury. Therefore, a broken bone does not classify as a condition, whereas Herpes, OCD, Shingles, and Ulcers do.

Medical conditions are classified by specific symptoms and signs. While each person's experiences can vary, there are consistent signs and symptoms that doctors will look for when diagnosing their patients. We always recommend that people seek a professional diagnosis. Afterward, supplement medical advice and opinion with accurate and easy to read information.

Most people only spend an average of a couple minutes with their doctor during a checkup. Oftentimes patients don't receive the fullest explanation of their diagnosis.
