Pancreatitis
is a medical condition in which the affected individual experiences severe
abdominal pain, often accompanied by vomiting and fever. Pancreatitis is a serious condition with
significant morbidity and mortality.
This condition is usually associated with obesity and repeated bouts of
alcohol drinking. Some people may have
repeated attacks of pancreatitis, which may result in complications in the long
run. Pancreatitis may also results as a
complication of gall bladder inflammation.
Chronic pancreatitis may destroy parts of the pancreas or may form cysts
within the pancreas, which may affect its normal functioning.
Acute
and severe pancreatitis is best treated in a hospital since there is a
real-time risk of severe complications; however, mild or chronic and recurring
pain can be effectively treated with Ayurvedic medicines. Most importantly,
recurrent pancreatitis can be very effectively treated with Ayurvedic herbal
medicines, both in children as well as in adults. This can gradually stop
recurrent episodes of pain, minimize damage to the pancreas, and prevent long
term complications. Treatment is usually required for about 6 months, after
which the medicines can be gradually tapered and stopped completely.
