There is a dramatic increase in the number of diabetic patients and the number of patients who develop complications due to poor glycemic control is really increasing! The diabetic foot is one of the most serious complications and one of the more serious complications that cause disability and death. At present, regarding the treatment of diabetic foot, there are constantly patients asking whether treatment with western medicine or herbal medicine is effective. Today we will talk about it briefly. In fact, it is very difficult to say whether it is good or bad, after all, “there are shortcomings and longcomings”. To summarize, western medicine is characterized by a clear mechanism of action and rapid onset of action, but it is effective in lowering blood sugar and treating acute complications, while Chinese medicine, in my opinion, lies in adjustment and dialectical treatment to improve one’s condition, which is effective for various chronic complications, but the effect of lowering sugar is limited and requires long-term treatment. However, what I am going to say today is that for the treatment of diabetic foot trauma, is Western medicine or Chinese medicine better? First of all, Western medicine can control blood sugar well, treat peripheral vascular disease, nourish nerves and improve the overall health of patients, but treating wound trauma is a shortcoming, for example, many departments use a lot of drugs, but the infection just can’t be controlled and the trauma just can’t heal for this reason. In the treatment of wounds, Western medicine cannot be compared with Chinese medicine. For example, you can use Chinese herbal water to wet compress the wound, improve the immunity and resistance of the local wound, and use different kinds of Chinese ointments with adulterants to apply the wound externally, other effects of removing decay and pulling out toxins, carrying evil out and simmering pus to produce muscle, which proves to be better for wound healing. But in fact, the best approach is to absorb the respective advantages of Western medicine or Chinese medicine to complement each other, which is the main reason why we advocate the combination of Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of diabetic foot. After treatment, the patient’s body will be improved, various chronic complications will be treated, and the wound will be treated to achieve the goal of conservative non-amputation treatment.
