Can we control diabetes without medicine?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Through diet changes and weight loss, you may be able to reach and hold normal blood sugar levels in early stages of diabetes. This doesn't mean you're completely cured. Type 2 diabetes is an ongoing disease. Treatment is very much needed.

View allI've been having nipple erection, and they seem really puffy. I'm worried it might be gynecomastia or something like that. Whenever I wear t-shirts, my nipples stick out and it's super embarrassing. A pulmonologist suggested I take Augmentin 625mg twice a day and Rantac 150mg both after eating. I'm just wondering if this is the right treatment for this problem. Could you give me some advice on what to do?
Nipple erection and puffy nipples can indeed be symptoms of gynecomastia. However, Augmentin (625mg twice a day) and Rantac (150mg after food) are not typically used to treat gynecomastia. Augmentin is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections, while Rantac is used to reduce stomach acid. For gynecomastia, the treatment approach may vary depending on the underlying cause. It is important to follow up with your pulmonologist or a specialist in gynecomastia for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

I have gynacomastia and my nipples look puffy. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? I'm worried about how it looks and want to know if there are other options.
Yes, there are non-surgical options to address gynecomastia and puffy nipples. These include lifestyle changes, hormonal therapy, and potentially, certain medications. If your gynecomastia is due to hormonal imbalances or excess fat, improving your diet, exercising regularly, and potentially addressing underlying health conditions can help.
