Diverticulitis is a complication of diverticulosis so, they have the same risk factors. Moreover, there are risk factors for the recurrent diverticulitis.  Environmental and lifestyle factors are important risk factors for diverticular disease.
The most potent [[risk factors]] for disease recurrence include multiple [[Diverticulum|diverticula]], [[intraperitoneal]] [[abscess]], [[family history]] of diverticulitis, and having a large portion of the [[colon]] involved in the disease.
