Answer:

C. Acquired herniations of the muscular colon wall mucosa and submucosa

Explanation:

Hernia refers to the development of outgrowth or protrusion of all or part of the organs through their cavity walls or membrane. Diverticulosis is herniation of mucosa and submucosa of the wall of the colon. Diverticulosis is one of the conditions caused by the imbalance of homeostasis. Many sac-like outgrowths develop in the wall of the colon. The outgrowths are in the form of pouches and are called diverticula.

The out-pouching occurs where the muscularis layer of the wall of the colon has weakened. The people with diverticulosis may have no symptoms and no complications. However, when diverticulosis causes inflammation, the person experiences several complications such as pain, vomiting, nausea, etc.

What to do if you get ulcerations in your throat from doxycycline?
Anon25 [30]
<span>Its called Doxycycline-induced esophageal ulcer. Its not common. I have been taking Doxy for many years for acne without any complication. Then one night I took a single pill, drank half a glass of water, and went to bed. I woke up with mild heartburn. A few days later, I was in immense pain. I felt burning up and down my whole chest. I was bloated, gassy, and couldnt burp. The pain was so severe, it caused me have a migrane. The pill dissolved in my esophagus, and caused an ulcer. It was my fault for not drinking a full glass of water, and going straight to bed. Im in treatment now, and am scheduled for an esophagogastroduodenoscopy. Im feeling a little better already after the first day of treatment, but ulcers take 4-8 weeks to heal.</span>
