Hello, thank you for sending the question: "Lots of bowel movements, loose stools after drinking alcohol, is it due to recurrent acute pancreatitis?". The doctor would like to answer as follows:
According to what you said, most likely not pancreatitis. Doctors think more about gastrointestinal disorders. You should see a specialist, so that the doctor can accurately determine the condition and have a treatment plan for you.
You can go to the hospitals of Vinmec Health System to be examined and given specific advice by specialist doctors. Thank you for submitting your question to Vinmec.
