Weakness of feet going up and down stairs in the early stage of pancreatitis may be a combination of electrolyte disorders, insufficient intake, etc. It can be regulated by rehydration to regulate the water-electrolyte disorders and replenishment of energy.
The principle of treatment for pancreatitis is dietary abstinence, gastrointestinal decompression, inhibition of gastric acid secretion, and anti-infection. Because diet may stimulate the secretion of gastric acid as well as pancreatic enzymes, further aggravating pancreatitis, it is necessary to prohibit diet in the early stage of pancreatitis.
At this time, if the amount of intake, that is, intravenous energy supplementation, is not enough, or if there is a combination of electrolyte disorders, such as hypokalemia, hyponatremia and so on. It is possible that the patient may experience weakness in walking up and down stairs.
If it is clear that the weakness is caused by insufficient intake or electrolyte disorders, the electrolyte disorders can be corrected by intravenous energy supplementation and oral administration of potassium chloride extended-release tablets. However, if pancreatitis is combined with weakness in walking up and down the stairs, it is necessary to pay attention to the existence of neurological and cerebrovascular problems, and cranial nuclear magnetic examination can be done to clarify the diagnosis.
The above drugs are recommended to be used under the guidance of a doctor.
