Chronic and Recurrent Pancreatitis – Modern (Allopathic) Versus Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment

 Pancreatitis is a medical condition in which there is inflammation and damage to the pancreas due to gall stones, or alcohol binges along with fatty food consumption. The pancreatic juices which are responsible for the digestion of food can cause auto-digestion of the pancreas due to the inflammation process. An acute attack can be dangerous, with the potential for serious complications like infection, peritonitis, abdominal rupture and septicemia. Chronic or recurrent attacks, combined with inflammation, can cause scarring and cyst formation in the pancreas.

An acute attack is best treated in an intensive care unit of a well equipped hospital. This can prove to be life-saving. Timely treatment in a hospital can prevent or treat infection, stabilize the patient with intravenous fluids, provide symptomatic treatment for vomiting and abdominal pain, and help tide over the crisis. If impacted gall stones are the cause for the pancreatitis, surgery can be planned to remove the stones. Modern medicines however, cannot actually treat the pancreatitis or prevent further attacks, other than giving dietary and lifestyle modification advice to avoid the aggravating factors for this condition.

Recurrent attacks of pancreatitis can be effectively treated with Ayurvedic herbal medicines. Most patients with chronic pancreatitis complain of continuous, low grade or severe pain in the abdomen, along with nausea and loss of appetite. In this scenario, while modern medicine can provide just symptomatic and short-lived improvement, Ayurvedic herbal medicines can provide complete and lasting relief from the pain, nausea and vomiting, and help gradually improve appetite as well as normalize digestion. Ayurvedic treatment can also reverse the damage and inflammation to the pancreas and prevent recurrence of attacks. Early commencement of Ayurvedic treatment can bring about a full recovery and prevent permanent damage.

Ayurvedic treatment is equally effective in both adults as well as children, since herbal medicines are used in pancreatitis treatment, which have a wide safety margin. An average of about six months of treatment is required for most patients, in order to relieve all symptoms, prevent recurrence, and help the patient regain lost weight, especially so in children. It is important to reduce weight in obese patients and avoid intake of alcohol, tobacco, and fatty foods. Patients with gall stones need to be treated aggressively with specific Ayurvedic medicines, if this is the causative factor.

To sum up, Ayurvedic herbal medicines provide a comprehensive, safe, effective and affordable treatment for chronic and recurrent pancreatitis. No recurrence has so far been observed in patients – both adults and children – who have completed a full course of regular treatment, and have abstained from all the known and aggravating factors. While modern medicine currently has no effective therapy for chronic or recurrent pancreatitis, patients with an acute attack are best managed in hospital.

Chronic Pancreatitis - Successful Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment

 Chronic pancreatitis is a condition in which the patient experiences chronic or intermittent severe abdominal pain, due to a chronic, continuing inflammatory process which gradually destroys the pancreas either fully or partially. The presence of stones, cysts, increased lobularity, dilated ducts and calcification are typical signs of chronic pancreatitis. Pancreatic enzyme blood levels are either normal or mildly elevated. In time, the organ gradually loses its functions and the patient may end up with complications like diabetes and malabsorption syndrome.

            Alcohol abuse, gall bladder stones, autoimmune disorders, and trauma are the known causes of chronic pancreatitis, while in some patients the cause remains unknown. Standard treatment includes pain management, prevention and treatment of known causes, treatment of organ insufficiency or failure, and surgery.

            Ayurvedic herbal medicines can be very effectively used in chronic pancreatitis to reduce pain and prevent or minimize long term, irreversible damage to the organ. Herbal medicines can reduce the inflammation in the pancreas and thereby prevent long term complications like cyst formation and calcification. Treatment can change according to the known cause of the condition. It is advisable to start Ayurvedic treatment at the earliest possible since this can bring about a complete reversal of the inflammation and a complete cure. Even patients with chronic history and visible damage to the pancreas have made a complete recovery without a recurrence. Children with recurrent pancreatitis also do well with Ayurvedic treatment and recover completely with treatment.

Any fresh episode of pain can usually be treated successfully with Ayurvedic medicines, with very few exceptions.  Most patients who tend to relapse or do not respond well to treatment usually have a history of faulty compliance to treatment, inadequate diet control and a tendency to binge on fatty foods and alcohol. Average treatment time for chronic pancreatitis is about eight months, depending upon the severity of organ damage and the response to treatment.

Ayurvedic herbal treatment is therefore a viable treatment option for chronic and recurrent pancreatitis. Early treatment can prevent irreversible damage and bring about complete recovery, with minimal chances of recurrence.

Established and Effective Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment for Chronic and Recurrent Pancreatitis

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.

Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment for Pancreatitis

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.

The modern management of pancreatitis deals mainly with tiding over the crisis, giving supportive treatment, and preventing complications like infection, peritonitis, abdominal rupture and septicemia. Modern treatment cannot actually treat pancreatitis or prevent further attacks effectively.  Ayurvedic treatment can be effectively utilised in the management of pancreatitis because Ayurvedic medicines not only reduce the inflammation and swelling within the pancreas, but they also prevent its associated complications, and also prevent further attacks.  Ayurvedic medicines can therefore effectively reduce the serious mortality and morbidity associated with this condition.

Ayurvedic medicines also effectively reduce the cyst formation which usually results from attacks of pancreatitis.  Most people affected with this condition also have symptomatic gall stones or inflammation in the gall bladder.  Ayurvedic treatment can effectively treat all these conditions too.  It is equally important to adopt lifestyle changes, reduce weight, and abstain completely from alcohol and tobacco.  Most people who have chronic pancreatitis require Ayurvedic treatment for about four to six months, in order to get substantial benefit from treatment, and to stop recurrent attacks.
