A member asked:
Can a ahaustral colon be reversed with medication? i had a barium enema done that showed long standing colitis and a lead pipe descending colon.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually Not: The purpose of treatment of colitis and lead pipe colon is to diminish inflammation and prevent further damage. This appearance of the colon usually means multiple previous episodes of acute colitis and scarring of the tissues.
