What are causes, symptoms, signs and treatment for diabetes?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Exact cause is unknown but most appreciated hypothesis is either low insulin or insulin resistance due to genetic +/- environmental factors. Symptoms and signs include increased thirst, extreme hunger, unexplained weight loss, frequent urination, fatigue, irritability, blurred vision, slow healing wounds, presence of ketones in urine, fruity odour and frequent infections.Treatment is either tablets or insulin to control blood sugar levels along with life style modifications (Diet + exercise).

View allWhat food can diabetics eat?
Regular and consistent diet is most important, with no feasts and fasts. Split your diet into 3-4 meals. Avoid sugar and sugar containing foods, and fried foods. Avoid fats (butter, oil, malai) and fat rich foods (puri, paratha, chat, namkeen etc.) Choose healthy carbohydrates, such as fruit, vegetables, whole grains, beans, and low-fat milk, as part of your diabetes meal plan.

Can homeopathy actually treat gynecomastia or is surgery the only way to get rid of it? I've heard mixed opinions and I'm not sure what to believe. Are there any effective homeopathic remedies or should I just consider surgery? I've been dealing with gynecomastia for a while and I'm hesitant about surgery. Does homeopathy offer any real solution or is it just a temporary fix? I'd prefer a non-surgical option if possible. My son is struggling with gynecomastia and we're exploring treatment options. Is homeopathy a viable choice or is surgery the only permanent solution? I'm worried about side effects and long-term results. I've read about homeopathic treatments for gynecomastia but I'm skeptical. Has anyone seen real improvement with them or is surgery still the most reliable option? Does homeopathy work for reducing gynecomastia or is it just delaying the inevitable need for surgery? I'd like to avoid going under the knife if there's a safer alternative.
Homeopathic treatment for gynecomastia may or may not prove to be effective in treating gynecomastia. There can be some side effects such as digestive issues, nausea, vomiting, cold after taking the homeopathic medicines for gynecomastia. Also, it takes lots of time to show effective results with this treatment option

I'm really worried about my thyroid test results. My TSH is at 2.5 and T3 is at 1.5, but my T4 level is pretty high at 17.2. Does this mean there might be a problem with conceiving?
I understand your concern for your mother's recurring mouth ulcers. Considering her condition, it's essential to consult a specialist, such as an oral pathologist or an oral medicine expert. Possible underlying causes: - Autoimmune disorders (e.g., lichen planus) - Nutritional deficiencies (e.g., vitamin B12) - Chronic stress - Hormonal imbalances Advanced treatments: - Biopsy to determine the underlying cause - Immunosuppressive medications - Laser therapy - Natural remedies like aloe vera, turmeric, or coconut oil Don't lose hope; a proper diagnosis and personalized treatment plan can help manage her condition.
