Dr. Rahul Singh has been practicing diabetology for 10 years, dedicating his career to the management and treatment of diabetes and related conditions. With a wealth of experience, Dr. Singh has developed a deep understanding of the complexities associated with diabetes care, including Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, and prediabetes.
Type 2 diabetes may increase the risk of dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, likely due to the effect of high blood sugar on the brain.
Diabetes increases the risk of heart disease, heart attacks, stroke, and high blood pressure. It can also lead to atherosclerosis (narrowing of the arteries).
Managing diabetes can take a mental toll, and the condition has been linked to a higher risk of developing depression and anxiety.
Poor circulation and nerve damage increase the risk of foot ulcers and infections. In severe cases, untreated infections can lead to gangrene and the need for amputation.
Nerve damage can also affect the digestive system, leading to issues like gastroparesis, which slows or stops the movement of food from the stomach to the small intestine.
Diabetes can damage the kidneys' filtering system, leading to chronic kidney disease and, in severe cases, kidney failure. This may require dialysis or a kidney transplant.
High blood sugar can damage nerves, especially in the legs and feet. This can lead to pain, tingling, numbness, and an increased risk of infections and injuries, as wounds may heal more slowly.
Diabetic retinopathy can cause vision problems and even blindness due to damage to the blood vessels in the retina. People with diabetes are also at higher risk for cataracts and glaucoma.
Diabetes can make the skin more susceptible to bacterial and fungal infections. Diabetic dermopathy, blisters, and rashes are more common in diabetics.
