Patient's question:
Doctor, my mother seems to have diabetes. I want to know, if someone gets diabetes, what should they do? Are there any things that need to be noticed or taken care of? What symptoms can diabetes cause? I hope you can explain it to me. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
You doubt that your mother has diabetes, which is a disease characterized by elevated blood sugar levels due to impaired glucose utilization. Symptoms such as increased hunger, large appetite, excessive thirst, frequent urination, and weight loss may reappear. It is recommended to revisit the hospital's endocrinology department for a doctor to check her blood sugar levels. After confirming whether she has diabetes, timely treatment should be initiated. It is essential to maintain a light diet and avoid excessive consumption of sweet foods. Regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene to prevent bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
