Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar
UC and SRUS have some things that are the same, but they are a bit different. UC impacts your big intestine, making it red and sore. You may get loose poop, belly pain, and blood in your poop. SRUS often causes bleeding from your rear end, gooey discharge, and trouble controlling your poop. Meds that reduce redness help with UC, while SRUS may need food with lots of fiber and poop softeners.
