"No matter how serious it is, you may not be able to save your whole foot." The doctor said, Lao Li was very scared after hearing this.
Lao Li has suffered from diabetes for many years and is a senior "diabetic friend". Since he suffered from diabetes, he has been taking medicine to control his blood sugar. The condition was relatively ideal, so Lao Li relaxed his vigilance and not only stopped the medicine without authorization, but also ate at will.
1 years ago, Lao Li had symptoms of intermittent claudication , but he thought he might be older and his legs were starting to become unclear, so he didn't care.
Until a while ago, Lao Li found that his feet had a " corn" and the pain was particularly strong when walking, so Lao Li found a pedicure room at the doorstep to repair the corn.
What he didn't expect was that after he finished the corns, his feet showed abnormal ulceration. , and the condition continued to worsen as time went on. The wound could not heal for a long time. From a small wound, it gradually ulcerated and formed a big hole. smelled and bleeded and bleeded , and the pain was unbearable.
This made Lao Li feel that the situation was wrong. He went to the hospital to go to lower limb artery ultrasound examination and was told that he had diabetes foot . Fortunately, he came too late. After treatment, his feet were preserved and did not affect the normal foot function. However, he had to smuggle off the severely ulcerated small toes.
Old Li felt very scared about this, but he just repaired his eyes and actually brought such a serious problem. If it continues to deteriorate, it may not be able to save your entire foot.
1. JAMA latest: The incidence rate of diabetes and in China has exceeded 50% in the early stage of diabetes!
Diabetes refers to abnormal increase in blood sugar in the body, and blood sugar is glucose that exists in our blood.
After ingesting food, people will digest and decompose the glucose components in the food. At this time, the body will secrete insulin to help maintain blood sugar stability. Diabetic patients have poor insulin in their bodies, which makes their blood sugar unable to maintain balance, which makes their blood sugar continue to rise.
Long-term poor control of blood sugar can easily lead to ketoacidosis , hyperosmotic coma , etc. During the acute increase, it may also cause retinopathy cataract , cerebrovascular lesions and bleeding, which seriously threaten the patient's life safety.
A study on the status of diabetes in China published by the authoritative medical journal JAMA pointed out that the prevalence and early prevalence of diabetes in China, actually rose by about 4 percentage points in five years!
The number of diabetes patients in my country is continuing to rise. In the five years from 2013 to 2018, the prevalence rate of diabetes patients in my country increased from 10.9% to 12.4%, and the number of people in the early stage of diabetes is also increasing, reaching 38.1% in 2018, and the number of people in the early stage of diabetes and the total number of patients in the total of diabetics is as high as 50.5%.
The current situation of diabetes in my country cannot be underestimated, but the awareness and treatment rate of diabetic patients are far from enough.
2. The blood sugar is high in , what do you know? There are 4 changes in the foot, reminding you to lower sugar in time
When diabetes comes, the body will have some abnormal signal manifestations. These four changes in the foot must be vigilant.
Itching on the feet: Itching on the feet may be caused by infection with fungi, but it may also be a sign that the blood sugar in the body is too high. When the blood sugar is abnormally increased, it will cause the nerves in the foot to be stimulated, causing abnormal itching.
The feet often have chills and numbness : The abnormal increase in blood sugar will cause damage to the blood vessels and will cause obstruction of blood circulation in the lower limbs. When the feet cannot obtain sufficient blood supply, abnormal numbness and cold feet are prone to symptoms, even when the weather is not compressed or when the weather is warm.
Toenails turn black: Under normal circumstances, our toenails should be pink, but some patients with diabetes have abnormal blockage of the limb ends due to blockage of blood circulation in their bodies, and the color of the toenails will be abnormally black.
Indirect claudication : High blood sugar can cause blood circulation in the lower limbs to be blocked. When the feet cannot obtain sufficient blood, abnormal limp will occur when walking. As the condition develops, the frequency of lameness will become higher and higher, and it will not be relieved after rest.
3. "Great sugar-raising big players" were found. Three staple foods covered with "coarse grains" may increase blood sugar
Everyone knows that the daily diet of diabetic patients needs to be controlled, otherwise it will be difficult to control blood sugar well even after taking the medicine. However, some so-called sugar-lowering foods may be "IQ tax".
includes " whole wheat" bread, coarse grain steamed buns and nutritious cereal , three staple foods covered with "coarse grains".
Whole wheat bread is a bread made of whole wheat flour that removes bran and wheat germ. This type of bread has darker color and rougher texture, and its taste is not as good as ordinary bread .
However, many whole wheat breads on the market are "improved versions", but a little whole wheat flour is added. When buying whole wheat bread, you must learn to look at the ingredients list. If you find that whole wheat flour is in a relatively backward position, or add more salt, sugar, etc., it is not recommended to buy it;
Many coarse grain steamed buns sold on the market may not be made of real coarse grains, but are made of fine grains + pigment , or a small amount of coarse grain powder is added to the flour. In addition, merchants will add a lot of sugar to it in order to ensure the taste. This kind of food is obviously not suitable for diabetic patients. If you find that the coarse grain steamed buns have a delicate taste, be careful that this may be a fake coarse grain.
Oatmeal is also a coarse grain choice for many people, but now there are many so-called "nutritional cereals" on the market. adds dried fruits, nuts and other ingredients. In fact, this type of cereal contains high sugar content, and the nutrition of the cereal itself will also be lost in the finishing process, which can easily lead to increased blood sugar after consumption.
4. How to prevent the appearance or aggravation of diabetic foot? Remember 3 points in mind
For diabetic patients, in addition to paying attention to diet, they also need to pay attention to these details in daily life to help better prevent the occurrence of diabetic foot.
. The most important thing is to take regularly and regularly and regularly, and at the same time, treat blood sugar in a stable range. This can prevent many complications, including diabetic foot.
2. Patients should check their feet every day in their daily lives. When they find that the wounds on the feet are or abnormal ruptures , they should be treated in time. It is best to go to the hospital to avoid the wounds from continuing to heal and causing the disease to develop more and more severely. In addition, it is best for diabetic patients to not to soak their feet in daily life, because they have poor perception of temperature and are prone to burns.
3. In daily life, you should pay attention to choosing with good breathability and high comfort. To avoid leaving the foot in a state of impermeable or squeezed, it is more unfavorable to protect the health of the foot.
Diabetes is a chronic disease. Once you find a disease in life, you should actively cooperate with the doctor for treatment and cooperate with life conditioning. Patients should fully recognize the importance of controlling blood sugar, and should not stop the medicine without authorization, and seek medical treatment in time when abnormalities are found.
