Unfortunately, it affects too many parts of the body and this is why is it vital to take control and manage your diabetes as effectively as you can to avoid all these complications that are sadly life threatening. The parts of the body that impacted by diabetes are:
· Your Kidneys - this is where you body gets rid of harmful chemicals and other compounds that get produced under normal metabolism. Your kidneys are a filter where blood pours through, the most importantly it traps any waste and then sends the waste out through your urine; your kidneys also look after the salt and water content in your body. If you get kidney disease, also known as nephropathy, and your kidneys fail you will need to be put on a dialysis machine which is an artificial way of keeping your kidneys functioning, otherwise, you may need receive a new kidney via a transplant from a suitable donor.
1 2 Impact
· Your Eyes - the eyes are the second major organs in your body to be affected by diabetes. Eye disease, known as retinopathy is a disease that is limited to those with diabetes and sadly can lead to blindness.
· Your Nervous System - this is the third major organ in your body that can be affected by not maintaining your diabetes properly. People that develop nerve disease, also known as neuropathy usually smoke, are over 40 years of age and have a bad control of their glucose levels. The major issue with this disease is the high number of cases of foot infections, amputations and foot ulcerations, these are all conditions that can be avoided quite easily
· Your Heart - when one or more of your arteries closes completely the end result is a heart attack. Coronary artery disease (ischaemic heart disease) is what is known when there is a progressive closure of the arteries, which is where you get your supply of blood to your heart muscle. Coronary artery disease is the most common reason why people with type 2 diabetes die.
The main risk factors for this is caused by:
· Obesity
· Abnormal blood fats
· Hypertension, and
· Central adiposity
· Your Feet - To avoid amputations you should follow these tips closely:
· Examine your feet every day
· Don't go barefoot
· Always wear socks with shoes
· Always wear the correct footwear, make sure your shoes don't rub against your feet or squash them
· Avoid heating pads for your feet
· Shake your shoes before putting them on to ensure there are no rocks or anything else that may irritate your feet
· Stop smoking as this is a certainty that will lead to amputation
· Visit your podiatrist when you require treatment for toenail clippings, calluses, and corns
· Your Skin - skin disease is unique to each individual person, the complications associated with the skin are:
· Bruises that are caused by insulin needles
· Loss of hair (alopecia) occurs in people with type 1 diabetes
· Vitiligo which is a loss of skin pigmentation that is a part of the autoimmune of type 1 diabetes and unfortunately cannot be prevented
· Insulin hypertrophy (fat hypertrophy) is where the accumulation of fatty tissues occur due to the insulin being injected
· Dry skin which results from diabetic neuropathy due to the lack of sweating
· Fungal infections that can appear under the nails and between the toes. Unfortunately, fungus likes moisture and in turn elevates your glucose
These parts of the body that impact on your diabetes can be treated. The good news is that the majority of these complications can be avoided with the proper care and maintenance of your diabetes.
