Diabetes Care

 Diabetes is a chronic condition where the body struggles to regulate blood sugar levels, either due to insufficient insulin production or resistance to its effects. This persistent elevation in glucose can damage organs over time, increasing the risk of heart disease, kidney failure, nerve damage, vision loss, and foot ulcers. 

There are several types of diabetes, including Type 1, Type 2, and gestational diabetes. Early diagnosis and consistent management are key to preventing complications. Treatment typically includes blood sugar monitoring, insulin therapy or oral medications, and dietary and lifestyle modifications. Women with gestational diabetes need timely intervention to avoid risks to both mother and baby. 

Comprehensive diabetes care focuses not only on medication but also on patient education, foot care, and nutrition guidance. With the right support, individuals can manage their condition effectively, reduce health risks, and improve long-term quality of life.
