Feeling severe abdominal pain, nausea, and heartburn can indicate acute pancreatitis, which can develop into chronic inflammation for many reasons.
Dr. Nina Zubova, a specialist in proctology and colon surgery, points out that the pancreas is a gland in the digestive system that produces the enzymes necessary to digest food: protease (which splits proteins), lipase (helps digest fats), and amylase (works with carbohydrates). All enzymes secreted by the pancreas reach the intestine. But if the flow of pancreatic secretions is disrupted for some reason, the enzymes already produced remain in the pancreas and begin to “digest” the pancreas itself.
"Doctors usually distinguish three types of pancreatitis - acute, reactive and chronic. Each of them has its own causes and distinctive symptoms," she says.
“Acute pancreatitis” is a sudden inflammation of the pancreas. Its main symptoms: acute pain in the upper abdomen or left hypochondrium, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, flatulence, and increased body temperature. Yellowing of the whites of the eyes may also be noted.
The doctor says: “When an acute attack of pancreatitis occurs, a person must call an ambulance immediately. Before the doctors arrive, ice and a bottle of cold water can be placed on the solar plexus area, as well as taking any anti-spasmodic medication.”
