Diabetes is not serious

Diabetes is a serious disease.

If diabetes is not well controlled for a long time, it will lead to the occurrence and development of a variety of chronic complications. For example, damage to microvessels can cause retinopathy, resulting in decreased vision or even blindness; affecting the kidneys can cause diabetic nephropathy, which may eventually develop into renal failure. Macrovascular disease is also one of the serious hazards of diabetes, which will increase the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as coronary heart disease, stroke, etc., which poses a huge threat to the safety of patients. Not only that, diabetes may also cause peripheral neuropathy, leading to limb paresthesia, pain and even ulcers, gangrene, etc., seriously affecting the quality of life of patients.
