Brief Answer:
Yes, you need to go back to the hospital.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Pancreatitis is a painful condition that occurs when the digestive juices from the pancreas leak and cause damage to the pancreas and surrounding structures. Pancreatitis has a tendency to recur and therefore you definitely should go back to the hospital.

Hope I have answered your query.
