DL gave a great advice. I just wanted to answer your questions.
I have some questions that i would like to ask
1) should i apply heated packs on pain area or not? as a friend said that heated pack shouldn't be applied if there has been a bleeding (in stools, but that was 4 days ago), i also read somewhere that for mild attack, you should apply heated packs.
Yes, heat packs are fine. You can also apply castor oil twice a day on your abdomen and apply heat. Castor oil taken orally will help, too. One tablespoon in warm black tea first thing in the morning. It will give you diahrea. Blood if red in color is from small tears in the rectum/anus, no big deal, but black color blood means internal bleeding. If it was red then you need good fiber and probiotics. If Castor oil is not helpful, take Trifala Churna every night before going to bed.
1) should i go for aloe vera or wheat grass juice or rejuvelac fast instead of water fast? since these work on the colon.
Yes, you can continue to eat these foods, but DO NOT fast with only these foods, you will feel worse.
2) doctor recommended some antibiotics for infection, on what basis i should decide whether i really need them, if pain increases?
No antibiotics, it will just give you other health issues that you do not have, you can use Colloidal Silver, which you can start today, one tablespoon twice a day, it will not harm you. Inculde good probiotics in your meals, such as Kimchi, Sauerkraut, yogurt and probiotic capsules. I alternate these probiotics to get all different strands.
3) should i continue the exercise, obviously when i am not feeling the pain or should i wait to get better?
Yes exercise is fine without too much exertion. Walking and swimming are best, Yoga is fine too.
Feel better.

Precaution: Be sure to talk with your physician before adding an iodine supplement; too much can cause serious problems. -ICNDonna
I am a pharmacist with "the worst case of IC (the surgeon) has ever seen". Severe ulcers. Sudden onset during pregnancy and then nonstop severe symptoms x 4years with Western medicine treatment- Elmiron, heparin/lidocaine installations, bladder flushes under anesthesia. No real effect until I stopped all these medications and tried a natural approach. One theory is that IC occurs because of toxins in your body. I used bentonite clay internally and in bath for a month. I had all of my amalgams removed. I started taking iodine 12mg daily for 3 months, followed by 3.25mg daily until I die, I expect. I also supplemented with Boron- I suggest Earthclinic.com for suggestions on how to do that. I also have not had wheat in 6 months except as a special occasion like a wedding (cake).
My IC is completely gone. I can even ride a bike on a bumpy trail for hours! I just realized the other day- I was getting up 8 times nightly and now I don't even think about it anymore. I beleive that my IC was caused by the bromine in "enriched" flour. Iodine replaces the bromine. I also believe that the vast majority of Americans are iodine deficient and need 10-100 times more than the RDA. The argument that excess Iodine causes hyperthyroidism is not correct in my (and others) opinion. Japanese consume about 85mg daily. Americans consume less than 1 mg daily. Also, my breath is better, I have more energy but not excess, and my rope-like breast tissue (caused by bromine toxicity) is getting softer.
I suggest everyone research Iodine (make sure an American practicing M.D. authored the writing, to be conservatve).
My mom started taking the iodine, too, and her arthritis is better as well as her type II Diabetes."
