pancreatitis symptoms and treatment
Treatment for acute pancreatitis requires a few days' stay in the hospital for intravenous (IV) fluids, antibiotics, and medication to relieve pain. The person cannot eat or drink so the pancreas can rest. If vomiting occurs, a tube may be placed through the nose and into the stomach to remove fluid and air.
Symptoms of chronic pancreatitis may or may not include abdominal pain that may include bleeding due to anemia, Liver problems (jaundice), weight loss, nutritional deficiencies, and. inability to produce insulin resulting in diabetes. Diagnosis of pancreatitis (both acute and chronic) is done similarly.
