Pancreatitis is a condition where the pancreas becomes inflamed. It occurs when the digestive enzymes in the pancreas are activated before being secreted into the duodenum, causing the pancreas to attack itself. The main symptom is pain in the upper abdomen that can radiate to the back, along with nausea and vomiting.
