After heavy snow, winter has arrived, and there is nothing that a hot pot meal cannot solve. Under the dual effects of eating meat and drinking alcohol, spicy and stimulating foods, and alcohol, the vulnerable "hot pot youth" often suffer greatly. Irregular sleep patterns and diet are planting a "time bomb" on your pancreas. What is the high incidence of acute pancreatitis in winter? Abdominal pain is pancreatitis? Who are the most popular people for pancreatitis? How to treat and prevent? Listen to what the experts say! Why is acute pancreatitis so severe? The pancreas "hides" deep in the abdominal cavity, 5-10 centimeters above the navel, and is the digestive organ of the human body, second only to the liver. The main job is to participate in the digestion and metabolism of the human body. 1. Exocrine function - The digestive pancreas secretes approximately 750ml to 1500ml of pancreatic juice every day, which is mainly composed of various digestive enzymes secreted by acinar cells and water and bicarbonate secreted by ducts. These pancreatic juices are discharged into the small intestine and are the main force for digesting proteins, fats, and sugars. 2. Endocrine function - insulin and glucagon, which are involved in the regulation of blood sugar, can regulate blood sugar. Once it goes wrong, it may cause diabetes. Acute pancreatitis is a disease of the pancreas caused by the self digestion of trypsin. Under normal circumstances, digestive enzymes have no digestive function when they are in the pancreas, and only activate when they are drained into the duodenum. However, due to various factors (such as biliary system diseases, infections, hyperlipidemia, alcoholism, etc.), it is possible to activate the proenzymes in pancreatic juice in advance, and pancreatic enzymes begin to digest the pancreas themselves, leading to acute pancreatitis. According to the severity of clinical manifestations, acute pancreatitis can be divided into three types: mild acute pancreatitis, moderate severe acute pancreatitis, and severe acute pancreatitis. Mild acute pancreatitis is mainly characterized by pancreatic edema and is a self limiting disease. Generally, it can recover within 1-2 weeks. If left untreated, it is also possible to progress to severe illness. Moderately severe and severe acute pancreatitis are much more severe, especially in severe cases where the condition is dangerous, there are many complications (shock, peritonitis, sepsis, etc.), the mortality rate is high, and even death can occur within a few hours of onset. Therefore, we need to be highly vigilant of similar suspicious symptoms, and once suspected of pancreatitis, seek medical attention and treatment as soon as possible. Abdominal pain is the main symptom of acute pancreatitis. Acute persistent severe upper abdominal pain can spread to the lower back. Aggravated in supine position, relieved in sitting or forward bending position, and cannot be relieved by spasmodic and analgesic drugs. If there is pancreatic bleeding and necrosis, causing peritonitis, it may manifest as total abdominal pain and bloating, and in severe cases, shock may occur. What are the causes of pancreatitis? There are many factors that can lead to the occurrence of pancreatitis due to unhealthy dietary habits, the most common of which include biliary tract disease, hyperlipidemia, and long-term heavy drinking. To sum up, it is unhealthy eating habits. More than half of acute pancreatitis caused by biliary tract diseases, such as gallstones or common bile duct stones. The excretory port of bile and the opening of the pancreatic duct share a common bile pancreatic ampulla. If this area happens to be blocked by falling gallstones, it can cause obstruction of pancreatic juice discharge and bile reflux into the pancreatic duct, leading to pancreatic proenzyme production
