Acute pancreatitis

Acute pancreatitis is a condition where the pancreas is swollen or inflamed for a short period of time.

What is Pancreas?

Firstly, let’s understand what a pancreas is.

Pancreas is a small organ which is located behind your stomach, which helps with digestion.

It’s a long, flat gland that produces digestive enzymes and hormones like glucagon and insulin which help your body regulate the way sugar is produced.

What are the causes of Pancreatitis?

Pancreatitis is caused when the digestive enzymes are released inside the pancreas instead of outside, then these enzymes cause damage to pancreatic cells and also pancreatic tissues

This in turn causes swelling and bleeding of organs and blood vessels which is called Pancreatitis

A)    Alcohol Abuse: – More than 70% of pancreatitis issue is caused because of alcohol abuse

B)    Gallstones: – This is the second most common cause of the disease. The gallstone travels from the gall bladder into the bile duct and blocks it. This causes bile and enzyme to flow into the pancreas causing swelling

C)    Genetics: – Fairly uncommon but the cause is still not known
