Is diabetic symptom a foot cold?
summary
Diabetes is well known to all, but when it comes to its complications - diabetic foot, little is known, not only to the public, but also to some non specialists. This directly leads to the patients have no access to medical treatment, delay the opportunity of treatment, and may eventually face the fate of amputation. Diabetes often causes lower extremity vascular stenosis or complete occlusion, resulting in insufficient local blood supply, which is an important cause of diabetic foot. Only by carrying out vascular reconstruction and ensuring the blood supply needed by the tissue, can lower extremity health be guaranteed. Is diabetic symptom a foot cold? Let's talk about it.
Is diabetic symptom a foot cold?
Status 1: lack of diabetes knowledge, health education lag. Diabetic patients do not pay enough attention to diabetic complications, and the early onset of diabetes is hidden, the clinical manifestations are not obvious, so it is easy to be ignored; On the other hand, diabetic patients do not know enough about the severity of foot lesions, and do not pay enough attention to the lesions that should be treated in the early stage, such as blisters, chaps and so on, which lead to serious infection.
Status 2: poor blood glucose control, lack of effective monitoring. The most effective measure to reduce diabetic complications is good control of blood glucose. Controlling blood glucose in the normal range can significantly reduce the incidence of diabetic complications. Because long-term continuous hyperglycemia can cause vascular endothelial damage, resulting in intima is not smooth or blocked, resulting in ischemic symptoms.
Status 3: early vascular disease has not been paid attention to. The lower extremity vascular diseases caused by diabetes include microvascular diseases and macrovascular diseases. Diabetic foot mainly invades dorsalis pedis artery, anterior tibial artery and popliteal artery to form plaque and then cause obstruction. Microarterial lesions are mainly microarterial thrombosis caused by microarterial embolism, trauma, infection or spasm, which affects the blood supply of lower limbs and feet. It is often manifested as calf cramps. In addition, most of the patients are elderly people, and they often think it is osteoporosis. Unexpectedly, their own blood vessels are out of order, which delays the best treatment opportunity.
matters needing attention
In order to treat the symptoms of diabetic foot cold, we should first control blood sugar, ensure the health and stability of blood sugar, which is a prerequisite to ensure the blood supply to the foot.
