Modern medicine distinguishes two basic forms of pancreatitis: acute and chronic. The indicated types of pathology are characterized by specific symptomatology, dynamics of course, and also by methods of treatment. Common clinical manifestations for pancreatitis are painful sensations( sharp or dull, aching), digestive disorders, nausea, an increase in the body's temperature level, pallor of the skin.
Acute pancreatitis, as a rule, proceeds more painfully and quickly, while the chronic form is much less curable. However, inflammation of the pancreas is not a deadly diagnosis, which really threatens this pancreatic disease only when the treatment does not arrive in time and in the required amount.
The acute form of pancreatitis, unfortunately, provides, practically, the inevitable stay in the surgical hospital. Surgical intervention, often, has the form of a distal pancreatectomy, surgeries according to the Whipple method, lateral pancreatureunostomy. Although the specialist has sufficient qualifications, these procedures are not particularly difficult, yet the medicine is extremely reluctant to resort to such radical methods, preferring medication correction and substitution therapy.
What is the treatment for pancreatitis?
Treatment of chronic pancreatitis is a rather lengthy and multifaceted process. It provides for both elimination of pathogenic factors, and direct impact on the focus of the inflammatory process in the pancreas, its localization and, with optimal outcome, complete neutralization.
The picture of medical measures in this disease traditionally includes such items as:
- strictly balanced diet, in some cases - starvation;
- acceptance of a complex of drugs of anesthetic spectrum;
- substitution enzyme therapy( in the modern medicine of pancreatitis, the use of Creon, Mezim and other similar agents is practiced);
- vitamin support of the body;
- elimination of hormonal disorders, detection and treatment of possible concomitant diseases, such as, for example, diabetes mellitus or cholelithiasis.
The best treatment for pancreatitis is the prevention of
. It is natural that the onset of pancreatic disease is associated with a number of pathogenic factors. Among them the main ones are:
- regular consumption of alcoholic beverages;
- improper diet associated with unregulated occupational loads;
- weakened genetic background of the organism;
- transferred infectious diseases.
It is natural that the best method of treating pancreatic diseases is a cardinal change in the way of life, the rejection of past bad habits, a strict and regulated diet. It is very important to coordinate the diet with the treating specialist, since not all foods, even those with dietary properties, are equally recommended for pancreatitis.
Many doctors recommend using even more acute forms of pancreatic pathology to resort to even such a cardinal method as curative fasting. Undoubtedly, not every organism can withstand such a severe diet, but cleansing of the digestive tract is necessary in any case. Therefore, a strict diet can be diversified with simple, useful and easily digestible products: porridges, steamed vegetables, boiled white meat. It is optimal if it is a chicken, or, in extreme cases, a fish. It is strictly forbidden to eat fatty, spicy food, especially all fried foods. Alcohol should be excluded completely, as it, as a rule, is the main causative agent of pancreatic disease.
Unfortunately, the course of pancreatitis dynamics is often accompanied by the appearance of internal inflammations, sometimes - hemorrhages and other pathological phenomena requiring surgical intervention. The curative effect of folk medicine on the pancreas
Although modern science is quite skeptical about many manifestations of folk, home treatment, but relatively to pancreatitis these methods have proven themselves perfectly. Obviously, it was found that with pain manifestations of a certain type, the best food product is precisely and balanced the chosen diet.
Since the main principle of the effectiveness of traditional medicine on the pancreas is precisely its simplicity and effectiveness, most of the proposed techniques have gained wide popularity and use it to this day.
It is worth remembering that the fundamental component of most folk remedies are the fruits of grass, substances of natural origin and minerals. In particular, the most effective in the fight against pancreatitis are nutrition systems based on the use of dietary dishes:
- from potatoes;
- carrots;
- taking on an empty stomach of fresh vegetable juices, in particular, the juice of fresh cabbage is effective;
- use of choleretic teas and infusions.
For example, it is very effective folk remedy for pancreatic diseases, for the preparation of which use celandine, anise, corn stigmas, birdwort, a dandelion and a three-color violet. All these herbs are taken in the same proportions( about 10 grams).This collection is poured boiling water in a volume of about half a liter, and for a couple of minutes is kept on fire until signs of boiling appear. The resulting amount of broth is filtered and placed in a dark, cool storage place. Take it should be three times a day on an empty stomach, and so for 14 days.
Often the continuation of the treatment of pancreatitis by folk methods is the use of an effective remedy such as herbal pancreas collection from the following components:
- fennel seeds;
- peppermint;
- hawthorn;
- immortelle( inflorescence);
- chamomile.
Preparation of the decoction is carried out according to the previous principle, the only feature is that it is recommended to take it during a longer string: about 30 days according to the scheme indicated.
Inflammation of the pancreas: a serious threat, but not a sentence
Many people erroneously ignore the disturbing manifestations in the life of the pancreas. And this threatens both the state of the digestive tract and the general health of the human body. To maintain yourself in optimal tone, you must always remember about the right, balanced diet, healthy lifestyle, and also show a minimum level of medical consciousness and personal hygiene.
After all, in the modern world, when medicine has reached such a high level of development and there are many effective drugs of preventive and direct exposure, any illness, including such as pancreatitis, first of all indicates a catastrophic inattention to one's own organism and criminal ignoranceits needs and problems.
