Were you recently diagnosed with Diverticulitis and want to know how to treat it? Have you had Diverticulitis before, having a flare up, and want to know if there is new data on the treatment of Diverticulitis? What about if you have Diverticulosis and want to know more information about Diverticulitis in case you get it some day? If you are asking any of those questions....or others about the treatment or management of Diverticulitis.....then watch this video!

In this video, I give a brief overview of what Diverticulosis is and how that is different from Diverticulitis. I also address the symptoms a patient would have with Diverticulitis and what would happen if they go to the hospital emergency room. Patients are usually advised to go on a clear liquid diet. But what else are they told to do? Get antibiotics? A lot of the treatment depends of your other help conditions, like whether you have IBS or are immunosuppressed.

What should you do if your symptoms become severe? Typically, a patient would go to the ER and have a CT scan, but new data suggests that an abdominal/pelvic ultrasound may be a good alternative and has benefits, which I will explain.

New data also suggests a rise in Diverticulitis. Lets talk about why that is and also discuss some myths associated with Diverticulitis. Finally, I will explain what the new data says about the cause of Diverticulitis.
