A member asked:
Does having proctitis with chronic inflammatory cells in lamina propria, with scattered neutophils in the lamina propria of the rectum mean i have ibd

IBD: Inflammatory bowel disease usually requires both clinical or endoscopic findings and a solid abnormality in the form of microscopic architectural abnormalities as well as significant inflammation. It doesn't sound from your description like you have more than just non-specific inflammation. If the rest of the colon was negative, this doesn't sound diagnostic.
