ULCERATIVE COLITIS (UC) is a disease in which the lining of the large intestine (colon) becomes inflamed. This inflammation leads to the formation of raw sores, or ulcers, causing pain and bloody diarrhea. UC usually begins gradually with bloody diarrhea, rectal bleeding, cramps or pain in the belly, and growing urgency to move the bowels. Depending on which area of the colon is affected, the stool may be normal or hard and dry.
Other symptoms may be fever, fatigue, weight loss, loss of appetite, anaemia from loss of blood, pus in the stool, malnutrition and slow growth in children.
UC can also affect parts of the body outside the colon, causing skin sores, mouth sores, joint pain, and inflammation of the eyes, the liver, the kidneys or the gallbladder.
Homeopathic medicines Merc Sol, Merc Cor, Sulphur and Phosphorus are a few of the important ones used in treating ulcerative colitis. The patient requiring Merc Sol has a continuous urge for passing stool and urine ? a never-get-done feeling. One often passes pure blood or bloody water. Symptoms asking for Merc Cor are nearly the same as those of Merc Sol; it is only the intensity which contributes to the selection. Merc Cor has more violent attacks, with a violent urge to pass stool and to urinate. Intense suffering follows. Phosphorus is indicated in cases which have painless and profuse stool passed involuntarily and freely.
Sulphur is indicated in long-standing cases of ulcerative colitis

Dr. I have been suffering from ulcerative colitis since 2020.. can you help me please?
I suffered from UC since many years, I experimented ALL medications for this… mesacol, cortisones, immunosuppressive, Ayurveda, Homeopath.. they helped somewhat, but not in the long run. I wrote here, in the same page, long time back as well.
Finally, it was a CHANGE IN THE DIET, that proved very helpful.
I’ve stopped all medications since last three years…. still no blood, mucus or stomach pain… maybe I’m on remission.
I feel that every food, fruit, vegetable and cooking mediums like oil, has a different effect on persons of different age. So we need to distinctly choose the food items that do not cause any flares.
Dear Sir,
Is Merc cor or Merc Sol a steriod. I am giving my son Merc Cor but some doctors are saying that this medicine is a steriod. Kindly confirm and oblige.
Regards,
Waheed
