There are many types of diabetes complications , and because this disease requires strong self-discipline in addition to taking medicine to control it, few people can control blood sugar well. Therefore, patients with a medical history of more than 10 years will most likely have one. The above complications of appear in , which seriously affect your health.

Especially due to the influence of current bad eating habits, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease of diabetes is a relatively common complication, and it is also a common complication that threatens people's life safety.

Headache is an important signal of cerebrovascular disease, so many people with diabetes worry that it is caused by cerebral blood vessels blocking when they have headaches. Is this really the case with

?

Is the headache caused by diabetic patients caused by cerebral blood vessel blockage?

Although headaches in diabetic patients do not necessarily result from cerebral blood vessel blockage, there are many other reasons, such as poor sleep, colds, anemia, high blood pressure , excessive stress, etc. that may cause headaches.

However, if patients with diabetes have poor blood sugar control and are in a high sugar state, it will directly stimulate blood vessels, especially cerebral blood vessels, so they are prone to headaches and dizziness.

Moreover, diabetic cerebrovascular disease is also a common complication, so when you have a headache, you must check it out in time and assess the risk in time, otherwise it will be troublesome to develop into stroke .

How do diabetic patients prevent cerebral blood vessel blockage?

1. Control risk factors

Diabetic patients are prone to cerebral blood vessel blockage, not only because of blood sugar problems, but also blood pressure, blood lipids problems, and because of elevated blood sugar, they are more likely to develop high blood pressure and hyperlipidemia than ordinary people.

Therefore, in addition to controlling blood sugar within the normal range, we must also pay attention to weight control to reduce the risk of high blood pressure and hyperlipidemia, otherwise it is easy to cause cerebral blood vessel blockage.

2. Maintain good living habits

To prevent cerebral blood vessel blockage, it is essential to maintain good living habits, especially for patients with diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and other diseases, they must pay more attention to maintaining good living habits. .

In daily life, you should pay attention to a light diet, eat less high-salt, high-sugar and high-fat foods, control your total daily caloric intake, drink more water, eat more vegetables, and keep your bowel movements smooth.

At the same time, we should pay attention not to smoke or drink, not to stay up late, and to exercise appropriately every day to promote blood circulation. In addition, we should also pay attention to maintaining a good attitude, not to be overjoyed or sad, and not to have big mood swings.

3. Monitor regularly and take medication to prevent it if necessary

Generally speaking, cerebrovascular blockage is more common in older diabetic patients, or in patients with high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, and obesity, so these people should pay more attention to doing well. Monitor blood sugar, blood pressure, and blood lipids to control these adverse factors in a timely manner.

In addition, these high-risk groups also need to take some preventive drugs under the guidance of a doctor, such as small doses of aspirin or some Chinese patent medicines that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.

4. The most worrying thing about seeking medical treatment in time

cerebrovascular blockage is the occurrence of severe acute cerebrovascular diseases such as cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage. Moreover, if these acute cerebrovascular diseases are not rescued in time, not only are they likely to leave many sequelae, but also May be life-threatening.

Therefore, if you usually have cerebrovascular symptoms such as headache, dizziness, numbness on one side of the limb, unclear speech, blurred vision, etc., seek medical examination in time without delay.

Cerebral blood vessel blockage is irreversible, so prevention must be done as early as possible. In particular, diabetic patients are more likely to develop cerebrovascular disease than ordinary people, so early prevention must be done.
