Hello Ida . Welcome to Health Care magic. Thank you for posting your query.
I can understand your concern for your son.

Do not worry much. Inflammation in the colon is probably due to inflammatory bowel diseases like ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease .
There are loads of treatment available with steroids , 5 - ASA drugs , immunomodulator drugs like infliximab.

I would suggest you to ask him to have
1. Loads of water
2. Have fibre rich diet
3. Avoid straining while passing stool
4. I would start syrup Lactulose to soften the stool

Do not worry much.
With proper treatment it can be kept in control.
Keep in touch with your doctor.

Hope this helps.
Have a nice day.
Regards.
