Will diverticulitis heal on its own?
Diverticula—little pockets that develop in the lining of the colon—can become inflamed or infected and cause bloating, diarrhea, constipation, and pain in the lower left abdomen.

Treatment for diverticulitis ranges from rest, a clear liquid diet, and antibiotics to hospitalization or surgery.
