how to control diverticulous?!
Question:
Answers:
Often no treatment is needed. Increases in hydration, increasing fiber content in the diet (the American Dietetic Association recommends 20-35 grams each day), or removing factors resulting in constipation help decrease the incidence of new diverticuli or possibly keep them from bursting or becoming inflammed (ADA website). Fiber supplements may aid if diet is inadequate. If the diverticuli are unusually large (greater than 1 inch), often infected (see diverticulitis), or exhibit uncontrollable bleeding, surgery can be performed to decrease relapse or other complications.
