What Causes Pancreatitis?
Please, advice him to reduce alcohol consumption.
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this pancreatitis that your son has. Please, tell him the fact that no cause was identified doesn't mean all is well. He should know that alcohol, lipid foods and tobacco are the main causes and aggravating factors of pancreatitis. Repeated attacks can cause cancer of the pancreas, diabetes and maldigestion and absorption in future. His goal now should be in reducing all known provoking and aggravating factors and that includes alcohol
I am not sure his doctor didn't give him specific advise on this. I hope you would be able to show him this and hope he understands and start taking greater care of himself.
I hope this helps. I wish him well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be
