When it comes to pancreatitis, I'm afraid most people only know the pain in the pancreatic part, which means they have pancreatitis. They don't know much about other early symptoms of pancreatitis, which leads to confusion of some patients.

Early symptoms of pancreatitis?

The main symptoms of abdominal pain (about 95% of the patients) are sudden upper abdominal or left upper abdominal persistent pain or knife cut like pain. The upper abdominal waist is banded, often occurs after eating or drinking, accompanied by paroxysmal aggravation, which can be enhanced by eating, and can affect the umbilicus or the whole abdomen.

2 / 3 of the patients with nausea and vomiting have this symptom, which occurs frequently. In the early stage, it is reflexive and contains food and bile. The late stage is caused by paralytic ileus, and the vomit is fecal. For example, those who vomit Ascaris are mostly pancreatitis complicated with biliary ascariasis.

About 20% of the patients with jaundice developed jaundice in varying degrees 1 to 2 days after the disease. It may be caused by the coexistence of bile duct stones, resulting in bile duct obstruction, or the lower end of the common bile duct is compressed by the enlarged pancreatic head, or the liver function is damaged, resulting in jaundice.

Eat too full, or eat indigestible, spicy food, will increase the secretion of gastric juice, increase the burden on the pancreas, leading to pancreatitis. Drinking is an important cause of acute attack or delay of chronic pancreatitis, so we must ban drinking to prevent pancreatitis.
