Pancreatitis can cause serious pain in the short term. Untreated cases and recurrences can lead to a chronic problem. The good news is that most cases can be treated. The symptoms of pancreatitis can be confusing. Symptoms such as stomachaches and back pain can have other causes.
There are two types of pancreatitis, chronic and acute. Both refer to inflammation of the pancreas, a gland that produces digestive enzymes -- which the body uses to metabolize carbohydrates and fats -- and the hormone insulin. The symptoms of acute pancreatitis are typically severe and need to be treated. If they aren't, you may develop complications like pancreatic cysts, abscesses, and leaks of pancreatic fluid into the abdomen, which can lead to other long-term problems or even death.
