A member asked:

I have been diagnosed with microscopic colitis since 2008. i ate corn a week ago. can it wait until today to cause a problem? does it accumulate in me

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: When you eat something it is digested and does not accumulate. I am unsure what problem you are concerned about.
