Diverticulitis refers to the inflammation or infection of diverticuliโsmall, sac-like pouches that form along the inner wall of the colon.
Asymptomatic cases typically require no treatment while mild cases can often be managed with antibiotics and bowel rest.
However, if symptoms persist or complications occur, surgical removal of the affected bowel segment may be necessary to prevent further damage.
