What are the symptoms of pancreatitis?

  In clinical practice, pancreatitis is a relatively common disease, what are the symptoms of pancreatitis? The main five points are as follows: 1. Sudden onset of severe abdominal pain 95% of patients with acute pancreatitis have this symptom. The pain is mostly stabbing, dull or knife-like, persistent, and can be intensified in paroxysms. Most of them are located in the middle and upper abdomen, but can also be located in the upper abdomen and radiating to the lower back. The pain can be partially relieved by sitting or bending the knees in the front position. General analgesics are ineffective. Very few patients have no abdominal pain and sudden shock or coma, the prognosis is very poor, as one of the causes of sudden death.  2, nausea, vomiting Most of the patients with acute pancreatitis will produce nausea, vomiting and other symptoms after the onset of the disease. And also accompanied by vomiting food or bile, a few can vomit roundworms and other phenomena; but it is important to know that vomiting does not make the pain relief.  3, fever Most patients with pancreatitis have moderate fever or more, and persistent fever or daily increase should be suspected of secondary infection, such as pancreatic abscess or bile duct infection and other symptoms after the point is the symptoms of pancreatitis.  4, jaundice A few patients with mild acute pancreatitis can have mild obstructive yellow scarring, caused by the enlarged head of the pancreas pressing on the common bile duct. If gangrene persists and deepens, the combination of bile duct stones should be considered. In the later stage, the appearance of xanthogranuloma should be considered as a complication of pancreatic abscess or pseudocyst formation compressing the common bile duct, or as a result of secondary hepatocellular damage.  5. Hypotension or shock The presence of hypotension or shock during the course of the disease suggests hemorrhagic necrotizing pancreatitis. The causes of shock may be plasma infiltration into the peritoneum, loss of body fluid by vomiting, internal bleeding, as well as peripheral vasodilation and increased vascular permeability.
