Can pancreatitis be cured?

  For the treatment of pancreatitis, we must consider whether it is acute pancreatitis or chronic pancreatitis, so that we can treat it accordingly, and if the condition can be effectively controlled, it can be cured.  In acute pancreatitis, there is usually general treatment and surgical treatment. In the early stage of acute pancreatitis, which is mild pancreatitis, non-surgical treatment can be used. Fasting and nasogastric tube decompression can be used, and fluid needs to be replenished from time to time to prevent shock. For the early stage of the disease, painkillers and antispasmodics can be given and antibiotics can be given appropriately, which will effectively lead to infection. However, for acute pancreatitis with serious complications, surgery must be considered because the development of the disease is very rapid and the effect of early treatment is more significant.  For chronic pancreatitis, treatment is carried out according to the different causes of the disease, such as performing dietary therapy, i.e. a small number of meals, high protein, high vitamin and low fat diet. Likewise, if the condition is very critical, pancreatic duct drainage and pancreatic surgery are performed if necessary.  Therefore, pancreatitis can usually be treated with conventional treatments during the course of treatment, and surgery can be considered when the complications are very serious. With the above treatment, if the condition is properly controlled, it can be cured.
