Pancreatitis is a medical condition in which the pancreas, a gland located behind the stomach, becomes inflamed. Pancreatitis can either be acute or chronic. Acute pancreatitis is a sudden inflammation of the pancreas that lasts for a short period of time. It is typically caused by gallstones, alcohol consumption, or certain medications. Symptoms include severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and fever. Chronic pancreatitis is a long-term inflammation of the pancreas that can lead to permanent damage. It is typically caused by heavy alcohol consumption, although other factors such as genetics and autoimmune disorders can also contribute. Symptoms include abdominal pain, weight loss, and diarrhoea.
