Patient's question:
How should the numbness, pain, and itching in the calf and foot caused by diabetes be treated? Which hospital is better for treating diabetes?Doctor's answer:
Hello, your condition is considered to be a complication caused by diabetes. Diabetes is a metabolic disorder resulting from insufficient insulin secretion, leading to high blood sugar levels. Generally, it is difficult to cure with conventional medications. Taking Western medicine to lower blood sugar or injecting insulin can only provide temporary control. Long-term and excessive use of these medications can have certain side effects and may also damage liver and kidney function. Currently, Western medicine does not have particularly effective treatment methods for diabetes, referring to it as an incurable disease. Therefore, it is essential to seek early and proper treatment to achieve the desired results.Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Chinese herbal medicine have accumulated many highly effective treatment methods through long-term clinical practice. It is recommended to use a combination of traditional Chinese herbs such as Cornus officinalis (Shanyao), Polygonatum sibiricum (Yuzhu), Rehmannia glutinosa (Shengdi), Anemarrhena asphodeloides (Zhima), Syzygium jambos (Lizhina), Terminalia chebula (Qingguo), Dendrobium candidum (Shihu), Cistanche deserticola (Roucongrong), Scrophularia ningpoensis (Xuanshen), Alisma orientale (Yiziren), Cynanchum chinense (Shawanzizi), Psoralea corylifolia (Buguoli), Cervus nippon (Lurong), Diospyros hainanensis (Hainan Chen), Panax ginseng (Ren Shen), Lycium barbarum (Gou Qi Zi), Propolis (Fengjiao), Aureocereus (Jinjing Fen), Curcuma zedoaria (Wu Zhu Fen), Poria cocos (Fu Ling), Dioscorea opposita (Huai Shan Yao), Morus alba (Sang Shen), Momordica charantia (Ku Gua), and others for combined treatment. These herbs show rapid effectiveness and proven efficacy.
These medications are safe and free of side effects, suitable for long-term use. They do not require dietary restrictions, special dietary avoidance, or the need for other hypoglycemic drugs—can be taken alone. They can effectively protect the pancreas, lower blood sugar, and enhance immunity. These herbs overcome the drawbacks of strict dietary restrictions in traditional treatments, allowing patients' nutrients to be effectively absorbed and utilized. This improves the body's innate immune function and disease resistance, preventing the occurrence of various complications and achieving comprehensive treatment with both root and symptom management.
When used in combination, these herbs can repair pancreatic function, regulate the body's metabolic balance, eliminate or alleviate various complications, and potentially block genetic predisposition and recurrence. We hope for proper treatment and a speedy recovery!
