Dilatation of the main pancreatic duct can cause abdominal pain, indigestion, jaundice, and other symptoms.
1. Abdominal pain: When the main pancreatic duct is dilated, pancreatic fluid cannot be drained and the pressure inside the pancreatic duct increases, resulting in epigastric pain. In severe cases, the pain radiates to the lower back.
2. Dyspepsia: When the pancreatic fluid cannot be discharged properly, the patient will not be able to digest food properly, and the patient will have abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms of dyspepsia.
3. Jaundice: Dilatation of the main pancreatic duct caused by pancreatic head lesions will affect the excretion of bile, resulting in jaundice.
4. Others: If secondary infection occurs, there will be a drop in blood pressure, chills, high fever and other symptoms.
If the above symptoms occur, you should consult the doctor in time to find out the cause of the disease and standardize the treatment under the doctor’s guidance.
