Once gynecomastia has been diagnosed, treatment of the underlying cause is warranted. If no underlying cause is discovered, then close observation is appropriate. If the gynecomastia is severe and of recent onset, medical therapy can be attempted, and if ineffective, glandular tissue can be removed surgically

I've been dealing with diabetes and lately, I've been having some trouble with my breathing and my sugar levels are pretty high too. Is there any way to manage or cure these issues? I'm really worried and just looking for some advice.

A diabetic patient experiencing breathing difficulties and high blood sugar levels may be experiencing a condition known as diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). This is a serious complication of diabetes that requires immediate medical attention. To address the breathing problems, the patient may need oxygen therapy to ensure proper oxygen levels in the blood. In terms of managing high blood sugar levels, the patient may require insulin therapy to help lower blood sugar levels effectively. It is important to monitor blood sugar levels closely and adjust insulin doses as needed. Additionally, ensuring proper hydration is crucial in managing DKA. It is essential for the patient to seek medical help promptly to receive appropriate treatment and prevent further complications.
