For those who already have it, the first line of treatment for diabetic neuropathy is to get blood sugar under control to help prevent further nerve damage.
For now, type 1 diabetes is not preventable. But it’s possible to get your blood glucose level back within normal range with lifestyle modifications such as eating a healthier diet; eating smaller, more frequent meals to keep your blood sugar stable; and exercising more.
Our focus is the type two: Medical doctors agree that type 2 diabetes is caused by insulin resistance.
Between 90 percent and 95 percent of all diabetes cases are type 2, and nearly one in five people who have it don’t know they do.
SYMPTOMS OF DIABETES
- Increased thirst
- Increased hunger (especially after eating)
- Dry mouth
- Frequent urination
- Unexplained weight loss
- Fatigue
- Blurred vision
- Numbness or tingling in the hands or feet
- Sores or cuts that heal slowly or not at all
- Dry and itchy skin (usually in the vaginal or groin area)
- Frequent yeast infections
If untreated or inadequately managed, type 2 diabetes may lead to numerous health complications, some of them life-threatening. They include periods of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar); diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage) that results in pain or numbness; foot and limb injuries, diabetic ulcers, deformities, or even amputations; kidney disorders; heart disease; blindness; skin problems; digestive disorders; s-xual dysfunction; problems with teeth and gums; and problems regulating blood pressure.
Preventing and Treatment for Diabetes
The treatment regimen will vary based on individual health and the type of diabetes you’re managing. But adequate exercise and a healthy eating habit are two key factors in preventing diabetes.In terms of drugs, one word that's often closely linked with the condition is Insulin and Glucose Monitoring. Seeing a professional medical doctor will be a wise decision before taking any drugs or medications.
