Question
Hello doctor,
I have had abdominal pain for a long time, I went to ultrasound, endoscopic examination, and CT scan of the abdomen, the result was chronic pancreatitis, moderate congestive inflammation, with 2cm pseudocyst. I was treated at the hospital for more than 9 days, doctors gave intravenous fluids and injectable stomach medicine, but my condition still did not improve much, after being discharged from the hospital I still had abdominal pain with back pain, more pain after eating. So the doctor asked me if I had abdominal pain with back pain after eating due to chronic congestive pancreatitis, what should I do? I lost 5-6kg because I couldn't eat. Thank you doctor
