In winter, in addition to endocrine clinics, there are many more diabetic patients in respiratory, urology and dermatology departments, and some old sugar lovers even joke that it is easier to see old patients in hospitals in winter. In addition to endocrine routine checkups to get drugs, a large part of them also come to treat a variety of “infections”. 1, respiratory infections and blood sugar cold air is always watching, normal people are still defenseless, not to mention diabetics. Appetite for blood sugar is more difficult to control sugar lovers; diet harsh resulting in malnutrition resistance to reduce sugar lovers; lower limb vascular disease reduced activity of sugar lovers, etc., are the cold respiratory infection preparatory. The same respiratory tract with bacteria, some people do not develop, some will be a flare-up, which is greatly related to personal constitution. Most of the sugar addicts with weak resistance are the latter. I recently consulted a respiratory patient, also a diabetic with pneumonia, whose blood sugar spiked to 29 mmol/l with ketoacidosis. Pneumonia is one of the life-threatening infectious diseases in diabetic patients. The disease progresses more rapidly and with more severe symptoms, with more seriously ill patients than the general population and a poorer prognosis. Pneumonia infection in turn will aggravate the increase in blood sugar, forming a vicious circle. 2, urinary tract infection women suffer from itching of the pubic area, urinary tract infections do not heal, female sugar lovers are prone to encounter a major problem in winter. This complication can occur throughout the year, high blood sugar levels, more sugar in the urine, breeding bacteria. The dry and dehydrated nature of winter in particular gives a ride to urinary tract infections. The prevention of urinary tract infections requires a combination of control and supplementation. Control your blood sugar and hydrate more. Pay attention to private hygiene, don’t give bacteria the opportunity to take advantage of. 3, skin infection crisis Hot water bags cover the feet, soak a hot spring, hot water scalding feet ….. So, a variety of reasons for scalded skin breakouts do not heal the sugar lovers gathered in the hospital. Some survey data show that the chances of skin infections among sugar lovers increase by 3 or 4 times in winter. Heat is also a risk factor, especially for sugar lovers with peripheral neuropathy who are not sensitive to temperature and are likely to be at risk without realizing it. Like bubble hot springs surprisingly burned themselves. Other patients, because the skin is dry, they scratch regardless, and infections have to be changed every day in the hospital. To avoid these injuries, we need to learn to avoid the various risk factors in life. You feel bad to have an electronic thermometer, always control the temperature. Feel dry to apply some moisturizing and emollient moisturizer.
