How Can Acute Colitis Be Treated?

I had acute colitis a month ago, now my stools are different. I feel like I m constipated. My stools have bright pink running through with some clots of blood. There is slimy weird stools with tentacles. It s been going on for several weeks and seems to be getting worse. My bum hurts. I have alot of air that seems to come out when I go to the bathroom. I am a teacher and want to wait until school is out to get help, but I m worried.
