Hello

CT findings may suggests colitis.
It may be due to infective etiology and it may be due to tuberculosis,etc.
Your son may need clinical correlation and further investigations.
He may need routine hemogram,mantoux test,chest-X-ray (PA view),specific tests for tuberculosis like T.B gold test etc.
He may need medicines depending upon findings.

Get well soon.
Take Care
