Hi..your boyfriend needs to go to the doctor who prescribed him the Lialda and request the rectal Rowasa retention enemas as well.
He can't go because of the inflammation and because of the now location of the inflammation in the rectum ..
Now is the time to get the rectal meds to help deal with the flare early....it won't pass on its own, it'll get worse, however.
Regarding feeding him buttermilk and bananas...that, personally, would send me into more gut pain.
What does he like to eat normally?
I agree, he should come on here and share to get the info he needs in order to deal with his UC, med suggestions, diet, etc.
