Pancreatic Disease
Pancreatic disease is a serious condition that affects the pancreas, a gland located behind the stomach that produces hormones and digestive enzymes to help with digestion. The most common type of pancreatic disease is pancreatitis, which is an inflammation of the pancreas. This condition can cause abdominal pain and swelling, as well as a decreased ability to digest food. Other types of pancreatic disease include pancreatic cancer, which is a cancer that develops from pancreatic cells, and chronic pancreatitis, which is an ongoing inflammation of the pancreas that can cause abdominal pain and fullness. If you think you may have pancreatic disease, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Early detection and treatment can help to prevent the progression of the condition and improve treatment outcomes.
