Symptoms of Acute Pancreatitis
Symptoms of Acute Pancreatitis
Symptoms of acute pancreatitis include gradual or sudden pain in the upper abdomen that sometimes extends through the back. You may experience mild pain at first and feel worse after eating. But the pain is often severe and can be constant for several days. If you think you're suffering from acute pancreatitis, you should seek immediate medical attention.
The following are the most common symptoms of acute pancreatitis. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently.
Symptoms of acute pancreatitis may include:
- Abdominal pain that may radiate to the back or chest
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Rapid pulse rate
- Fever
- Swelling in the upper abdomen
- Ascites—fluid build-up in the abdominal cavity
- Dropping blood pressure
- Mild jaundice—yellowing of the skin and eyes
Acute pancreatitis can be a life threatening illness and must be treated medically.
