carpal tunnel diabetic neuropathy

carpal tunnel diabetic neuropathy

It is commonly observed that almost fifty percent of diabetic patients suffer complications in their peripheral nervous system ,controlling peripheral body portions such as arms and legs.This complication result impairment in functions.            One of these condition is carpal tunnel syndrome  that start from the wrist of hand and further effect thumb,fingers and forearm.In this syndrome median nerve in the wrist swells and produce inflammation in tendon of muscles,this further swell entire Carpal tunnel of wrist.In the carpal tunnel syndrome,median nerve conduction time across the wrist of hand ,remain slow.All the nerves in the wrist compressed &traumatized. Median nerve damage prevalence,further impair quality of life,weaken muscles and produced permanent numbness in thumb and fingers.

diabetes and eye care

Diabetic eye disease or diabetic retinopathy is a disease of a type 1 or type 2 diabetic from 10 to 20 years of onset of disease.Not all but majority of the cases become the victim of disease according to their diabetic history.However a diabetic patient should have a checkup for eyes by comprehensive dilated eye exam.                                                                                                                                                                                          SYMPTOMS....                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  The onset of disease started from blurry vision and may end to blindness.Most common symptoms are                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                1.Patient feel blurred vision upon awakening at morning,that disappear after some time.

2.Patient see faded objects and hazy appearance of surroundings.                                                                                                                                                                                                   3.Some people feel moving strings like objects on visionary site.                                                                                                                                                                                                                    4.color blindness occur.Patient cannot differentiate between colours,and dark patches observe on visionary site.                                                                                                                                                                          DAMAGES......                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              The actual damage occur on retina which is the functional unit of eye.There are numerous small,narrow blood capillaries nourishes with blood to retina.These capillaries are blocked due to excessive sugar in blood.macula of retina suffer more.

diabetes and eye care

      The walls of blood vessels become thin  due to blockage and they leak the blood and fluids.Retina began to swell.The body's natural protection mechanism produce new arteries for blood supply to retina but their development remain slow and they cannot perform the task.New arteries are also abnormal in their growth and they also cause  blood leakage.Their abnormal growth also damage vitreous portion of eye that have plenty of water.This damage is called as vitreous hemorrhage.The damage to the vitreous portion clear water and blood normally  within few weeks to a month before the retinal damage and eye can get clarity after this period.You only observe dark spots before clearity period

diabetes and eye care

But if the entire cavity of vitreous fill with blood then there may be a vision loss.Continuous growth of New vessels produce scar tissues that push the retina to backward.This cause floating objects, spot light flashes and a severe vision loss.The new developing vessels also interfere with normal flow of blood and increase pressure of fluids inside eye and produced glaucoma.

      Due to glaucoma the main optic nerve that transform signal to brain for images, damage greatly and transform poor or no signals to brain for images and create permanent blindness.                                                                                                                                                          CARE/ PREVENTIONS.....                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  The onset of disease is almost certain after a definite period of time of diabetes.But the good news is that it is preventable by certain tasks or goal settings.                                                                                                                                                                                               DIABETES MANAGEMENT...                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    In type 2 diabetes the management is not impossible by diet planes,aerobic exercises etc.And in type 1 diabetes always proper and timely medications and insulin dosage is very important.Always maintain proper record of your blood sugar .monitor daily or 3 times a day if feeling any complication.your diabetes record is very important for your doctor to advice you .A1C haemoglobin test that reflects your blood sugar record for 2 to 3 previous months play a big roll in your diabetic management.Your A1C should be below 7%.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    BLOOD PRESSURE AND BLOOD                    CHOLESTEROL MANAGEMENT....                                                                                                                                                                                      High blood pressure further damage retinal arteries and further leaks new developing arteries hence make situation further worst.
