Duodenitis is an inflammation of the mucous membrane of the duodenum. With lesions in the upper sections, the symptoms of the disease resemble gastric ulcers; duodenitis in the lower sections causes symptoms similar to pancreatitis or cholecystitis. The disease is accompanied by general weakness, pain in the stomach, heartburn, belching, nausea, and vomiting. Acute inflammation, when following a gentle diet (sometimes fasting), usually ends within a few days. Repeated diseases become chronic, complicated by intestinal bleeding, perforation of the intestinal wall, and the development of acute pancreatitis.
