Patient's question:
The testicle has a sesame-sized wound, and there's a wound next to the urethral opening that's even smaller than a sesame. It hasn't healed for many years. Today, I went to the hospital, and the doctor asked me to fast for a blood sugar test. Why?Doctor's answer:
If blood sugar is high, it is difficult for broken wounds to heal. This is because the inflammation of blood vessels in patients with high blood sugar hinders the supply of nutrients, reducing the local healing ability. It is recommended to follow medical advice for thorough examination and accurate diagnosis. For testicular patients, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications, whereas delayed treatment may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and maintain a regular lifestyle, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
