Abstract
Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory bowel disease presenting with symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloody diarrhea and weight loss. Following courses like COVID-19 infection, respiratory diseases, surgical operations, etc., the duration and severity of symptoms may increase. Although the exact relationship between exacerbation of ulcerative colitis and COVID-19 is not fully understood, and there is scarce literature demonstrating that factors such as local immune deregulation, psychological stress, and the initiation of autoimmunity may play a role. In this case report, we aimed to present a patient with ulcerative colitis complaining of recurrent bloody diarrhea, tenesmus, and abdominal pain after COVID-19 infection.
