How likely is pancreatis in a 22 year old male?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not too likely : If alcohol is consumed, then pancreatitis is a likely possibility. Cystic fibrosis can lead to pancreatitis. Viruses can cause pancreatitis as well. The condition is sufficiently rare absent alcohol to consider other reasons for abdominal pain and vomiting.
