Many patients often wonder "Can ulcerative colitis be cured". However, there is currently no definitive treatment for ulcerative colitis. Current medical treatments aim to increase the time between flare-ups and make symptoms less severe.

Many of these situations are elective or subacute surgeries that can be postponed for days or weeks in some patients with confirmed COVID-19. However, emergencies such as colonic perforation, acute severe colitis, uncontrolled bleeding may occur, in which surgery cannot be postponed and must be treated promptly.
