Colitis: Your symptoms are consistent with acute colitis. Colitis is inflamation of the colon. Most likely you have a bacterial colitis that could have been caused by contaminated food. Most colitis will resolve with fluids and time. If a stool culture was done it may show the causative organism which may or may not need antibiotics to treat.
