Understanding Chronic Pancreatitis

Chronic Pancreatitis or chronic inflammation of the pancreas is a type of inflammation which is caused slowly and on an ongoing basis and eventually leads to the organ being destroyed permanently. Chronic pancreatitis is persistent and can impede the normal functioning of the pancreas including the ability to carry out digestion and maintain blood sugar levels. It differs from acute pancreatitis which occurs in a sudden manner.

Symptoms of Chronic Pancreatitis

Abdominal Pain that Lingers

The well-known sign of chronic pancreatitis is the frequent sensation of dull pain that is centred in the upper middle part of the abdomen. This discomfort can radiate to the back region and tends to aggravate after food intake, especially after consuming high-fat meals.

Unintentional Weight Loss

Because chronic pancreatitis results in a decreased ability of the pancreas to digest food, the patient will probably experience such weight loss even in the absence of any effort. This takes place due to the body’s inability to effectively absorb nutrients from food.

Steatorrhea and Other Symptoms

Steatorrhea is a condition wherein the fatty with a bad odour stools are secreted which is caused due to poor absorption of fats due to defective pancreatic enzyme sources. This condition is characteristic of Chronic pancreatitis, a long-standing illness.

Uncontrolled Nausea and Vomiting

Nausea and Vomiting

Chronic pancreatitis patients may complain of recurrent nausea which is often worse after food intake. Such nausea to some extent can end up in vomiting when there is intense gastric distress in efforts to mechanically chew food properly.

There is a possibility that chronic pancreatitis can cause damage to the beta cells in the pancreas that are responsible for producing insulin. What will happen here is that the organ is rendered impotent in terms of blood sugar management.

Chronic pancreatitis in some extreme conditions has made cases in which the bile duct has obstructed which may result in jaundice when the skin and eyes are coloured in a yellow tone. This is a physiological condition when excessively produced or stasis of bile is released into the bloodstream.
