Mild cases of pancreatitis are generally not serious, but if not treated aggressively they can turn into severe pancreatitis; while multiple recurrences of pancreatitis can damage the pancreas many times, and their prognosis of pancreatic function will be reduced.
Recurrent pancreatitis that is mild is usually not serious and is treated aggressively usually has a good prognosis.
Severe pancreatitis can lead to multiple organ failure such as respiratory distress syndrome in the respiratory system, renal failure in the urinary system, and liver failure in the digestive system.
A second recurrence of pancreatitis can destroy pancreatic cells again, which can lead to pancreatic fibrosis. And after curing pancreatitis, a large number of pancreatic cell necrosis is prone to complications, such as pancreatic pseudocysts, diabetes, and so on.
Therefore, it is important to avoid recurrence of pancreatitis after the first cure. In life, less alcohol, light diet, less overeating, regular work and rest, less late at night.
