What are the causes of acute proctitis?

Acute proctitis may be caused by infection, inflammatory bowel disease, foreign body damage and other reasons.

1. Infection

bacteria, viruses, molds and other pathogens directly invade the intestinal mucosa or infect the intestinal mucosa through the fecal oral route, which can multiply in large quantities in the intestinal mucosa, causing acute proctitis.

2. Inflammatory bowel disease

itself has inflammatory bowel disease, and the lesions can involve the rectum, resulting in damage to the rectal mucosa, so acute proctitis will occur.

3.

Foreign bodies such as bone fragments and wood chips enter the rectum, causing damage to the rectal mucosa, causing necrosis of intestinal mucosa epithelial cells, and then causing acute proctitis.
