Can Heavy Physical Exercise Cause Pancreatic Attack?
My Fiancee has acute chronic pancreatitis due to problems with her sphincter of Oddi. Will heavy exercise with plenty of sit-ups and stomach crunches lead to a pancreatic attack? Recenly we have noticed that after workouts she has experienced a couple of severe attacks. Thank you.
