Patient's question:
Doctor, my mother is 60 years old this year. She has had diabetes for several years. She has taken medication in the past, but it only improved slightly. I don't know how to fundamentally cure my mother's illness. How can diabetes be cured?Doctor's answer:
Diabetes is a chronic disease that is not easily curable. Generally, it is first controlled by diet and more physical exercise to manage blood sugar levels. If control is not effective, oral hypoglycemic drugs can be used to regulate blood sugar. If oral medication is not sufficient, insulin control is necessary. Specific monitoring of data, including fasting blood sugar levels in addition to post-meal blood sugar levels, is required to confirm the treatment. It is also important to pay attention to and increase physical exercise. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
