Diabetes is not scary, what is scary is the complications, which complications are more serious?

<> diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases in modern society, and the most frightening thing for diabetic patients is not diabetes itself, but complications induced by diabetes. Once these complications occur, they will seriously damage the physical and mental health of the patient, and even lead to the death of the diabetic patient. In addition to controlling blood sugar, the prevention and control of complications is also one of the top priorities of the majority of sugar friends, and for the prevention and control of complications, in addition to strictly controlling blood sugar, we should also pay close attention to the following signals that appear on our own, because they are likely to be the "omen" of some complications.

Periodontal and gum infections.

The main manifestations are due to the patient's vascular disease and neuropathy and the local microcirculation of the periodontal tissue is damaged, the repair ability is poor, the sensation is dull and easily damaged, and the oral cavity often has burning sensation and dry oral mucosa before the onset of the disease, and typical patients can also see red and swollen gums, periodontal tissue edema, periodontal pocket formation, tooth loosening, loss and other phenomena. <>

Gastrointestinal disorders.

Patients usually experience adverse symptoms such as decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain; **Infection, diabetic patients are more prone to various purulent infections, such as often accompanied by anti-folliculitis, boils, carbuncles, erythema, breakage, and**itching, and even**ulcers, etc., which can lead to local tissue necrosis or gangrene. Diabetes mellitus and its acute complications are often causal to each other, so it should not only be treated in time, but also need to be treated at the same time. <>

Vascular complications and neuropathy.

Macrovascular complications include cerebrovascular, cardiovascular, and lower extremity vascular lesions; Microvascular complications include renal and fundus lesions; Neurological complications include sensory, motor, and autonomic nerve lesions. The aura of cerebrovascular accident or cerebral infarction in diabetic patients is often accompanied by symptoms such as sudden dizziness or headache, salivation at the corners of the mouth, tightness on one side of the face, numbness on the opposite side, and difficulty in supporting the whole body; Diabetic lower extremity vascular lesions, the more typical clinical manifestations are diabetic foot, specific symptoms include numbness in both feet, tingling pain in both feet, sensory impairment in both feet, etc., in addition, patients may also suffer from intermittent claudication, lower limb rest pain, and gangrene and other symptoms. <>

Kidney lesions. The incidence of kidney disease in diabetic patients is about 17 times higher than that of non-diabetic patients, and the main symptom in the early stage is albuminuria, and the late sign is renal insufficiency, often accompanied by hypertension, general or local edema, etc.; The main symptom of eye complications in diabetic patients is fundus lesions, and the early signs are mainly reflected in blurred vision, and often myopia, while the visual objects are still good, mainly due to the reduction of ocular accommodative function, and mild diabetic cataract may also occur; The incidence of diabetic neurological complications is about 50%, and the early signs of sensory nerve complications include neuropathic pain, numbness, and hyperesthesia, and the precursors of motor nerve complications can be seen in movement disorders caused by single nerve palsy, and local muscle atrophy may occur.

Acute metabolic disorders in diabetic complications are actually called acute diabetic complications. Among them, acute metabolic diseases may cause acidosis, hypoglycemia, etc. Among them, the probability of hypoglycemia is very high and may immediately lead to coma.

If not handled properly, it can also threaten the lives of diabetic patients.

1. Diabetic foot.

2. Other diseases of kidney function.

3. About eye diseases.

4. Some cardiovascular complications.

5. Ketoacidosis can even be life-threatening.

Complications are terrible things, for example, one of my relatives had diabetes and had a very painful foot, which caused so much pain that he had to amputate his leg and lose a leg.

Terrible complications of diabetes:

Because if the patient's blood sugar is not well controlled, the human organs will be soaked in high blood sugar for a long time, which will lead to the gradual loss of normal function of the organs, which will lead to various complications. Complications of diabetes have become the main cause of serious diseases such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, blindness, and kidney failure.

In the field of ophthalmology, retinopathy caused by diabetes is very common, and in severe cases, it can lead to blindness and even enucleation of the eyeball.

The complications of diabetes mellitus are mainly divided into: 1. Diabetic macrovascular disease, mainly including arteriosclerosis occlusion of lower limbs, carotid plaque formation, coronary atherosclerosis, cerebral arteriosclerosis, etc. 2. Diabetic retinopathy is mainly caused by high blood sugar caused by retinal vascular disease.

3. Diabetic nephropathy is the decrease in glomerular filtration rate caused by diabetes, resulting in proteinuria, and then developing into end-stage renal disease. 4. Diabetic foot, mainly diabetic lower limb arterial occlusion and diabetic neuropathy, causing the rupture of lower limb tissues and even gangrene. 5. Diabetic neuropathy, mainly caused by diabetic small vessel lesions, resulting in local neurotrophic deficiency, resulting in abnormal temperature pain and acupuncture sensation.

Complications of diabetes are divided into acute and chronic.

1.Acute complications of diabetes.

Diabetic ketoacidosis, characterized by hyperglycemia, hyperserum ketones and metabolic acidosis, is one of the most common acute complications of diabetes. Hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state, characterized by severe hyperglycemia, markedly elevated plasma osmolality, and may be accompanied by dehydration and impaired consciousness, with or without significant ketoacidosis. Lactic acidosis is relatively rare in clinical practice, but the mortality rate is high, and it mostly occurs in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Hypoglycemia, hypoglycemia is a group of low intravenous plasma glucose (referred to as blood sugar) concentration, symptoms are usually manifested as sweating, hunger, palpitation, trembling, paleness, etc., and in severe cases, there can also be lack of concentration, restlessness, irritability and even coma.

2.Chronic complications of diabetes.

These include vascular and neuropathy.

Vascular lesions can be further divided into macrovascular lesions and microvascular lesions, macrovascular lesions include cerebral arteriosclerosis, coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, renal arteriosclerosis leading to renal hypertension, arteriosclerosis of the lower limbs leading to arterial stenosis of the lower limbs, and even diabetic foot, which can lead to amputation and death. Microangiopathies include diabetic nephropathy, a type of chronic kidney disease caused by diabetes mellitus in which the small blood vessels of the kidneys are damaged; Diabetic retinopathy. Diabetic neuropathy, divided into autonomic neuropathy and peripheral neuropathy, can occur **paresthesia, fast heart rate, diabetic gastroparesis, erectile dysfunction, etc.

There are many complications of diabetes, which are divided into acute and chronic. Acute complications, such as common hypoglycemia, diabetic ketoacidosis, hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state, etc. Doctors must try to avoid acute complications in diabetic patients, because acute complications are very harmful to the patient's life.

There are also chronic complications, including infection, craniocerebrovascular complications, fundus lesions, peripheral neuropathy, microvascular and macrovascular lesions, and autonomic nerve function lesions, which may affect all organs throughout the body. Therefore, the terrible thing about diabetes is not that blood sugar is a little high, but that it may cause complications in various systems and organs of the body, which will eventually lead to a serious decline in the quality of life, affect the quality of life, and increase the financial burden of the family. Therefore, it is very important to control blood sugar and manage blood sugar well in the early stage.

Diabetes mellitus can cause lesions of blood vessels and nerves, and various complications occur, which seriously threaten the health and life of patients.

Central neuropathy accelerates the aging of the brain and causes senile dementia.

Autonomic neuropathy can affect the functional regulation of multiple organs, causing a series of complex lesions such as diarrhea, constipation, gastroparesis, tachycardia, hypotension, urinary incontinence, urinary retention, impotence, abnormal light reflex, and excessive or low sweating.

Peripheral neuropathy can cause patients to lose pain and be unable to detect injuries or some diseases, delaying the condition.

Peripheral vascular lesions can block blood vessels, interrupt blood flow, and cause ulcers or even necrosis of the limbs, which eventually have to be amputated.

Diabetic retinopathy can cause a gradual decrease in vision until the patient becomes blind.

Diabetic nephropathy slowly progresses to kidney failure and requires dialysis or kidney transplantation.

The effect of diabetes on blood vessels also increases the risk of various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

In addition, elevated blood sugar can make infections difficult**, making wounds difficult to heal, and causing difficulties for many diseases**. Diabetes mellitus and ** leading to high or low blood sugar can also directly cause the death of patients.

Grit your teeth and hold on a little longer, a moment, a moment, after all, there is always someone who wants to win, why can't it be us, right?

Complications of diabetes include acute and chronic, with acute complications such as diabetic ketoacidosis, hyperosmolar coma, and lactic acidosis. Among them, diabetic ketoacidosis has a rapid onset and the course of the disease is usually less than 24 hours. Most patients have symptoms such as polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia, weight loss, polydipsia, and polydipsia, and in severe cases, nausea, vomiting, and even impaired consciousness and coma may occur.

Diabetic hyperosmolar coma is pathologically pathologically from the onset to the appearance of typical symptoms, generally one to two weeks, more common in elderly patients over 60 years old with type 2 diabetes, and the obvious increase in blood sugar can be greater than more than millimoles per liter. Diabetic patients who take large amounts of biguanides or have systemic diseases can develop lactic acidosis, with lactate concentrations of more than 5 mmol/L and more than 35 mmol/L in severe cases.

Chronic complications of diabetes include diabetic nephropathy, diabetic eye complications and diabetic foot, diabetic heart complications, diabetic cerebrovascular disease and diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Diabetic nephropathy is one of the most common complications of diabetes, and severe cases can lead to kidney failure and require dialysis**. Diabetic ocular complications include diabetic retinopathy and diabetes-related uveitis, diabetic cataracts, etc.

Diabetic foot is one of the complications of diabetes, and later stage can lead to foot ulcers, infection, osteomyelitis, gangrene, and even amputation. Diabetic heart disease, including coronary heart disease caused by diabetes, can manifest as angina, acute coronary syndrome, acute myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock and even sudden death.

Diabetic cerebrovascular complications can include cerebral arteriosclerosis, silent stroke, etc. Acute complications of diabetes mellitus have caused cerebral thrombosis, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, and can manifest as paresthesias in the limbs of diabetes.

Diabetes complications are still very scary. Diabetic patients, many of them are fatal and disabled due to complications, so diabetic patients must ensure their blood sugar control, try to avoid acute complications of diabetes, and at the same time try to delay the occurrence and development of chronic complications of diabetes.

The complications of diabetes mainly include three major acute diseases and many chronic complications. The incidence of the three acute diseases of diabetic ketoacidosis, diabetic hyperosmolar coma and diabetic lactic acidosis is relatively low, but the case fatality rate is very high.

Diabetic microvascular complications and diabetic macrovascular complications may lead to myocardial infarction, sudden death, amputation, blindness, etc., which seriously affect the quality of life of diabetic patients.

Diabetes complications are really scary. Poorly controlled diabetes can damage the kidneys, and if the kidneys are severe, they can be life-threatening. The heart can also be very damaged.

My grandmother died of diabetes complications, diabetes is mainly due to the kidneys and pancreas, usually pay more attention to the maintenance of this, can be prevented.
