Patient's question:
Recently, I have frequently experienced recurrent abdominal pain. A thorough examination at the hospital revealed pancreatitis. In recent years, pancreatitis has also recurred occasionally. Does a preference for greasy foods have a significant impact? Could it be chronic recurrent pancreatitis? If so, how should it be treated, and what precautions should be taken in the future?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, you should be suffering from chronic pancreatitis. Chronic pancreatitis can have acute relapses, and during acute relapses, it is important to promptly visit the hospital for follow-up treatment and further management as if it were acute pancreatitis. If you have chronic pancreatitis, you must pay absolute attention to avoiding greasy foods in your diet, completely abstaining from alcohol, quitting smoking, and preventing overeating and indulging in large meals. For patients with chronic pancreatitis, the course of the disease requires building confidence in overcoming the illness, actively cooperating with treatment, and persisting steadfastly.
