Diabetes is recognized as a chronic (long-term) and progressive (gradually worsening) disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. This was emphasized during a recent discussion by Dr. Rishabh, Director of EMC Super Specialty Hospital, and renowned diabetologist Dr. Amarnath.
Dr. Rishabh stated, “Diabetes is not a temporary condition but a lifelong disorder that gradually impairs the body’s ability to regulate blood sugar levels.” He highlighted that early diagnosis and continuous management are crucial to maintaining health and avoiding complications.
He further explained that improper management of diabetes could lead to severe complications, such as heart disease, nerve damage, kidney failure, and blindness. He advised, “It is vital for patients to adopt a healthy lifestyle, take medications as prescribed, and regularly monitor their blood sugar levels.”
Both experts urged people to stay alert to the symptoms of diabetes, such as frequent urination, excessive thirst, sudden weight loss, and fatigue. They particularly recommended regular check-ups for individuals with a family history of diabetes or obesity.
As part of its commitment to public health, EMC Super Specialty Hospital offers a comprehensive diabetes management program that includes personalized education, treatment, and long-term care.
