Patient's question:
Recently, a friend of mine has been feeling unwell, and lately, the symptoms have been worse than before. She felt she couldn't take it anymore and went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The doctor said she has diabetes. I just want to understand where the best treatment for diabetes is and which hospital is most specialized in this area?Doctor's answer:
Diabetes is a disease characterized by elevated blood sugar levels, where excessive glucose concentration in the blood can cause toxic effects on tissues and cells. It is recommended to visit the endocrinology department of a private Grade A hospital in your local area for follow-up. Let the physician examine your blood sugar levels, guide you on using hypoglycemic medications, and take them on schedule to control blood sugar within normal range. It is essential to manage your diet, avoid excessive sweet foods, and engage in adequate physical exercise. Regulate physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
