Symptoms can be sometimes undetectable to severe, including, excess mucus, blood in the feces, vomiting, pain while defecating, and abnormal defecation such as constipation and diarrhea. The veterinarian will treat with antibiotic in an attempt to control bacterial causes and inflamation. Steroids are also sometimes prescribed for treatment of this illness.
